Shoulder muscle fatigue development in young and older female adults during a repetitive manual task / Jin Qin... [et al.]

Sumario: A rapidly ageing workforce in the USA and other countries poses new challenges for preventing work-related injuries. This study showed that during an 80-minute repetitive light manual work, older adults exhibited more consistent patterns of electromyographic manifestation of shoulder muscle fatigue and less rest in the upper trapezius muscle than young adults.
