Abstract: The article discusses the study on determining the muscular patterns of postural component (PC) and focal component (FC) of muscular activity during manual wheelchair propulsion initiation. It states that the muscular pattern of the FC and PC were influenced by hands position trajectories and speed. It also mentions that the study allows the comparison between the activity of the PC and synthesize the anticipatory muscular activity.
