Biomechanics of Movement | Lecture 5.1: From Electricity to Force: Neuromuscular Biomechanics

Lecture by Professor Scott Delp of Stanford University about neuromuscular biomechanics, the nervous system, and how it excites and activates muscle to generate force. Learn about how the human brain and body modulate force, how muscles are recruited by the nervous system, and the tools used to measure the electrical signals in muscles.
