DOI: 10.1186/s12984-025-01778-7
Abstract: While music is known to influence exercise performance through auditory-motor coupling, the biomechanical mechanisms by which musical groove—characterized by rhythmic drive and movement-inducing qualities—modulates cycling coordination remain poorly understood. This study investigates how groove levels… read more here.
