Abstract

Sport is a physical activity that can optimize body development through muscle movement. Physical activity without rest with strong and prolonged muscle contractions results in muscle fatigue. Muscle fatigue that occurs causes a decrease in the work efficiency of muscles. Therefore, current study was carried out aiming to detect the effect of muscle fatigue on cardiac signals by monitoring the Electrocardiography (ECG) and Electromyography (EMG) signals. ECG is a recording of the heart's electrical activity on the body's surface, while EMG is a technique for measuring electrical activity in muscles. This study integrated ECG and EMG signal-tapping tools to detect the effect of cardiac bioelectrical signals on muscle fatigue in respondents who exercise routinely, rarely, and very rarely. Furthermore, the research method used was the Maximum Heart Rate (MHR) with a research design of one group pre-test-post-test. The independent variable was the ECG signal when doing plank activities, while the dependent variable is the result of the ECG signal monitoring. In order to get the MHR results, respondents used the Karnoven formula and performed the T-test. Test results further showed a significant value (p-Value <0.05) in pre-exercise and post-exercise. When the respondent experienced muscle fatigue, it showed the effect of changes in the shape of the ECG signal which was marked by the presence of movement artifact noise. It was concluded that the tools in this study can be used properly. However, this study also has limitations including noise in the AD8232 module circuit and the display on telemetry where the width of the box cannot be adjusted according to the ECG paper. The results of this study were useful as a reference for someone to be more careful in doing high-intensity exercise so as not to have an impact on the risk of heart disease. It is recommended for further research to use components with better quality and replace the display using the Delphi interface.
