Electromyogram During Exercise

Stepping up/down exercises mobilize the large
muscles around the thighs, so they are
extremely effective at increasing the amount
of activity performed.
Training the muscles around the thighs can
help prevent the deterioration of a person's
mobility when walking, climbing stairs, etc.
Also, when performing a steady walk, studies
have observed remarkable muscle activity in
the important calf muscles (gastrocnemius
muscle/soleus muscles).
