As a common neurophysiological phenomenon, voluntary muscle fatigue is accompanied by changes in both the central nervous system and peripheral muscles. Considering the effectiveness of the muscle network and the functional corticomuscular coupling (FCMC) in analyzing motor function, muscle fatigue...
