Sex-Specific Brain Activations during Single-Leg Exercise by Kyoungyoun Park-Braswell, Dustin Grooms, Sandra Shultz, Louisa Raisbeck, Christopher Rhea, Randy Schmitz

“…While muscle activation patterns and movement biomechanics are understood to differ between sexes, it is not well understood how sex influences brain activity for lower extremity movement. Since the brain plays a vital role for voluntary movement and joint stability, it is important to understand the sex differences in brain function in order to better understand neuromuscular control associated with increased musculoskeletal injury risk in female…”
