| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single Group Protocol | Experimental | Participants in this arm will perform two physical exercises on different days while wearing sensors that measure muscle activity (sEMG), brain activity (EEG), and heart rate (HR). |
|
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fatigue Exercise Protocol with Biosignal Monitoring | Other | Participants will complete two fatiguing exercises, including static bicycling and dumbbell squats. During each exercise, surface electromyography (sEMG), electroencephalography (EEG), and heart rate (HR) will be recorded to analyze fatigue levels. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| EEG (Electroencephalography) Alpha, Beta, Delta, and Theta Band Frequency (Hz) | Relative power in the alpha (8 to 12 Hz), beta (12 to 30 Hz), delta (2 to 4 Hz), and theta (4 to 8 Hz) bands extracted from EEG signals recorded during exercise. Alpha power is associated with the onset of physical fatigue and is computed using MATLAB. | Two sessions: Day 1 (Cycling session) and Day 2 (Squat session) |
| sEMG (Surface Electromyography) amplitude (μV) and median frequency (MDF) (Hz) | sEMG (microvolts) recorded from both sides of the quadriceps, hamstrings, tibialis anterior, and gastrocnemius muscles. Signal processing will be performed to compute amplitude and median frequency, assessing neuromuscular activation and fatigue during exercise. | Two sessions: Day 1 (Cycling session) and Day 2 (Squat session) |
| Heart rate (HR) and Heart rate variability (HRV) | Heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) are recorded in beats per minute (bpm) throughout cycling and squat sessions. Average and peak heart rates, as well as average heart rate variability (HRV), are used to evaluate physical fatigue and cardiovascular stress. | Day 1 (Cycling session) and Day 2 (Squatting session) |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Body mass index (BMI) | BMI is recorded by measuring body weight and height | Two times: before and after exercise sessions |
| Static muscle strength (N) | Static muscle strength in Newton of both sides of the quadriceps, hamstrings, tibialis anterior, and gastrocnemius is recorded using a dynamometer |
