Surface electromyographic recordings of the biceps and triceps brachii for various postures, motion velocities and load conditions

— Please note: This is a revised version as the dataset contained an error in the previous version. In this version, the error in the dataset has been corrected. The old version is available here for reference: http://doi.org/10.57720/1956 — The experimental data published in this data set correspond to surface electromyographic recordings of the biceps and triceps muscles, as well as the elbow joint angle of several human subjects during the performance of various arm exercises under varying load situations. The data were originally recorded for the purpose of optimizing a musculoskeletal model of the upper arm with a focus on elbow movement in 2018 and 2019 as part of a research project at Bielefeld University of Applied Sciences, Germany. In the context of this publication, the data are made available to the scientific community.
