The EMG measurements targeted the right first dorsal interosseous (FDI) muscle, which was monitored using disposable Ag/AgCl electrodes in a belly-tendon montage. The earth electrode was wrapped around the right forearm. The EMG signals were amplified by an amplifier (A-DL-720140, 4 Assist, Tokyo, Japan), processed by an A/D converter (Power Lab, AD Instruments, Colorado, USA) at a sampling frequency of 4 kHz, and then stored on a computer. For EMG analysis, a 20 Hz high-pass filter was employed together with a biological signal analysis software (Lab Chart 7; AD Instruments, Sydney, Australia).
