Summary for Patent: 10,010,260

Title:	Methods for assessing and optimizing muscular performance including a stride rate tuning protocol
Abstract:	A muscle assessment protocol can include: attaching one or more surface electromyometry (sEMG) sensors to the skin of a subject to be operably coupled with one or more muscles; operably coupling the one or more sEMG sensors to a computing system; performing the predetermined muscle activity of a muscle assessment protocol that includes a stride rate tuning protocol; monitoring/recording sEMG data of the one or more muscles during the predetermined muscle activity; and providing the sEMG data to the subject such that the subject can improve muscle performance for the predetermined muscle activity by using the sEMG data. The muscle activity includes static or dynamic muscle use. The predetermined muscle activity can be provided to the subject by the computing system.

Application Number:	14/795,005
Patent Claims:	1. A muscle assessment protocol comprising: operably coupling one or more electromyometry (sEMG) sensors attached to skin of a subject to a computing system so as to be operably coupled with activity of one or more muscles of a subject while the subject performs a predetermined muscle activity of a muscle assessment protocol that includes a stride rate tuning protocol; monitoring and/or recording sEMG data of the one or more muscles during the predetermined muscle activity; and providing the sEMG data to the subject such that the subject can improve muscle performance for the predetermined muscle activity by using the sEMG data. 2. The muscle assessment protocol of claim 1, wherein the muscle activity includes static loading resistance or dynamic muscle use. 3. The muscle assessment protocol of claim 2, wherein the predetermined muscle activity is provided to the subject by the computing system. 4. The muscle assessment protocol of claim 3, wherein the predetermined muscle activity includes a continuous exercise routine and/or a noncontinuous exercise or routine. 5. The muscle assessment protocol of claim 4, wherein the continuous exercise routine includes one or more of walking, jogging, running, sprinting, hiking, cycling, rollerblading, roller skating, skiing, cross-country skiing, rowing, swimming, snowboarding, yoga, pilates, or the like. 6. The muscle assessment protocol of claim 4, wherein the noncontinuous exercise routine includes one or more of firing an arrow from a bow, weightlifting, golf swing, bat swing, ball throw, punch, kick, jumping, squatting, or the like. 7. The muscle assessment protocol of claim 4, wherein: in the stride rate tuning protocol the one or more sensors monitor muscle sEMG data while the subject adjusts their caloric consumption during a controlled activity based on sEMG data that is measured and/or analyzed, and the sEMG data is provided to the subject in order to facilitate the adjustment of caloric consumption. 8. The muscle assessment protocol of claim 4, wherein the sEMG data is a metric selected from: sEMG amplitude; instantaneous rectified sEMG amplitude; average rectified sEMG amplitude; area under sEMG curve; area over sEMG curve; integrated sEMG; derivative sEMG; frequency-based, amplitude adjusted RMS sEMG; mean power frequency (MPF); muscle fatigue onset index (MFOI); or a combination thereof. 9. The muscle assessment protocol of claim 1, further comprising: obtaining ECG data; and using the ECG data in conjunction with the sEMG data.
