For those fortunate enough to walk normally, wandering is such an expected behavior that we hardly consider that it involves complex, partly involuntary processes. “Animals move to explore their ...

Outputs from the reticulospinal tract become more powerful during weight training and could be the driving force behind increases in strength. ### Manuscript title: Cortical, Corticospinal and ...

It is known that the reason why it takes some time from the start of strength training to the enlargement of muscles is that 'the body has become muscular.' Researchers at the University of Newcastle ...

Walking is a complex mechanism involving both automatic processes and conscious control. Its dysfunction can have multiple, sometimes extremely subtle causes, within the motor cortex, brain stem, ...

The brain orchestrates movement via two major neural highways descending to the spinal cord: the corticospinal tract (CST) and reticulospinal tract (RST). The CST is thought to be the dominant pathway ...

The brainstem locomotor system is believed to be organized serially from the mesencephalic locomotor region (MLR) to reticulospinal neurons, which in turn project to locomotor neurons in the spinal ...
