Proposed Methods

  1. Create (or find) a torso + arms model with muscles and use existing bicycle data to back out what muscles fire in the balance of the bicycle (could use MOCO, maybe inverse dynamics [but probably don't have enough force measurements], or the other builtin tool in opensim C...)
  2. Put EMG on a bicyclist and have them balance. Plot the muscle activation and determine primary players.
