it`s well established that EMG is a good tool to get a closer look at the electrical activity within muscles, but is their any other indirect way to assess the development of muscles firing pattern conducted as a result of neuromuscular training program
I use electo galvan current and measure mA, what we need to have muscle contraction, For example by muscle hypotrophy we need 10 mA, after muscles training of 10 days and in that case we need 5mA for passive muscles contraction, because muscles is stronger.
The second method is to measure muscles size with sonography,
I read that article about novel novel tests of neuromuscular function . It might be useful to answer your questions. Please see the following links.
Kind regards.

If your aim is to look specifically at muscle firing patterns then EMG may be your best bet. If your goal is to see if the neuromuscular training program results in learning, you may want to use frontal lobe fNIRS (activity decreases as the movement is learned) or you can simply look at performance curves and retention tests.
