We investigated postural stability during simulated archery shooting. The experiment consisted of two force release conditions: self-triggered (time-set in a feedforward fashion) and external cue-triggered (time-set by reacting to external cue) conditions while standing on the force platform. The electromyography of leg muscles and the center of pressure (COP) were recorded. The notions of muscle-modes (M-modes) and multi-muscle synergies were employed to quantify the postural stability, which described covariation patterns of the M-modes to stabilize the COP. The result showed relatively strong postural stability in a self-triggered condition associated with consistent shooting performance. The current findings suggested that initiating force release in a feedforward fashion would be a beneficial strategy to ensure the consistency in shooting performance.
