Our findings indicate that lower electromyographic activity during the torque-enhanced condition following active lengthening compared with a purely isometric contraction arises from fewer active motor units and a lower discharge rate of those that are active. We used an acute condition of increased torque capacity to induce a decrease in net output of the motor neuron pool during a submaximal task to demonstrate, in humans, the impact of motor unit activity on torque steadiness.
