MUSCLE SYNERGY SPACE: LEARNING MODEL TO CREATE AN OPTIMAL MUSCLE SYNERGY [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2013 Muscle redundancy allows the central nervous system (CNS) to choose a suitable combination of muscles from a number of options. This flexibility in muscle combinations allows for efficient behaviors to be generated in daily life.

Comparative Effects of Narrow vs. Wide Cuff Blood Flow Restriction on Muscle Synergy Dynamics: A Time-Frequency Decomposition Approach [PDF]
SensorsBlood Flow Restriction Training (BFRT) is a training method typically performed with low-intensity loads, yet it has been shown to induce muscle growth and strength gains similar to those achieved through high-load resistance training.
