What neural changes occur as a result of long term training?
Some of the neural changes that occur as a result of long term training are, increased neural drive (i.e., recruitment and rate of firing) to the muscle, increased synchronization of the motor units, increased activation of agonists, decreased activation of antagonists, coordination of all motor units and muscle(s) involved in a movement, and inhibition of the protective mechanisms of the muscle (i.e., Golgi tendon organs).
