Virtual reality did not significantly change rowing muscle fatigue in trained men during ergometer exercise
In this pilot test, a natural river simulation did not measurably slow lower-limb fatigue by electromyography. In a small pilot study of trained male rowers, virtual reality did not significantly change lower-limb muscle fatigue during rowing ergometer exercise. Fatigue patterns looked broadly similar with and without a naturalistic virtual environment. The authors stress the result […]
