Abstract

The idea of a neuromuscular synergy involving independent amplitude commands to the agonist and antagonist musculature is quite an appealing part of Plamondon's theory. One question that might be raised relates to the relative independence of the two “D” commands. Evidence is presented that suggests that the two commands might be related in sequential or simultaneous rapid aiming movements.
