It is widely known that motor learning leads to reorganization changes in the motor cortex. Recently, we have shown that using navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) allows us to reliably trace interactions among motor cortical representations (MCRs) of different upper limb muscles. Using this approach, we investigate changes in the MCRs after fine finger movement training. Our preliminary results demonstrated that areas of the APB and ADM and their overlaps tended to increase after finger independence training. Considering the behavioral data, hand dexterity increased for both hands, but the amplitudes of voluntary contraction of the muscles for the APB and ADM did not change significantly. The behavioral results correspond with a previously described suggestion that hand strength and hand dexterity are not directly related as well as an increase in overlaps between MCRs of the trained muscles supports the idea that voluntary muscle relaxation is an active physiological process.
