Neural pathways mediating cross education of motor function

KL Ruddy, RG Carson - Frontiers in human neuroscience, 2013 - frontiersin.org
Cross education is the process whereby training of one limb gives rise to enhancements in
the performance of the opposite, untrained limb. Despite interest in this phenomenon having …

Determining the potential sites of neural adaptation to cross-education: implications for the cross-education of muscle strength

AK Frazer, AJ Pearce, G Howatson, K Thomas… - European Journal of …, 2018 - Springer
