Capturing EMG data for the Triceps Surae

[Gabriel Del Castillo]

I want to acquire the triceps surae's excitation voltages and times. It will be used amongst other muscles to constrain our model during computed muscle control. The exercise in question is for ergometric rowing. I originally wanted to capture the soleus and gastrocnemius lateralis and medialis separately, but my advisor was against it.

I'm trying determine what threshold value is acceptable to tell our model when the muscles are 'on and off', but haven't had luck with my literature search.

Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Gabe
