Isometric-based test improves EMG-threshold determination in boys vs. men.

With the boys' detection rate nearly on par with the men's, the IICT protocol appears to overcome much of the intensity limitation of cycling-based protocols and provide a more sensitive EMGTh detection tool, thus extending the previously observed boys‒men difference. This difference adds supports to the notion of children's more limited type-II MU recruitment capacity.
