Abstract:

Highlights•We tried to clarify the neural mechanism of central inhibition during physical fatigue.•In the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, the alpha-band event-related desynchronization was identified.•The event-related desynchronization level was positively associated with the subjective level of right hand fatigue.•We demonstrated that the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is involved in the neural substrates of central inhibition.
