Introduction: Recurrent lower back pain (rLBP) and neuromuscular fatigue are
independently thought to increase the risk of lower extremity (LE) injury. Volitional …

Study Design Controlled laboratory study. Background Recurrent low back pain (LBP) and
neuromuscular fatigue are independently thought to increase the risk of spine injury …

Lower extremity injury during dynamic physical activity is a significant problem in society.
Fatigue is as a major risk for injury. A volitional preemptive abdominal contraction (VPAC) is …

Context: Reduced spinal stabilization, delayed onset of muscle activation, and increased
knee joint stiffness have been reported in individuals with a history of low back pain (LBP) …

Purpose To examine the influence of volitional preemptive abdominal contraction (VPAC)
and recurrent low back pain (rLBP) on trunk mechanics and neuromuscular control during a …

Context: The link between landing parameters and lower limb muscle fatigue in association
with chronic low back pain (CLBP) is not well understood. Objective: To examine the effects …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare kinematics of the lower extremity and
lumbar spine during a single leg landing task between female volleyball athletes with and …

Context Low back pain and lower extremity injuries affect athletes of all ages. Previous
authors have linked a history of low back pain with lower extremity injuries. Fatigue is a risk …

Background A volitional preemptive abdominal contraction (VPAC) supports trunk stability
during functional activity. Pain-free individuals can sustain VPAC during function, but such …

Context: Altered neuromuscular control strategies during fatigue probably contribute to the
increased incidence of non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injuries in female athletes …
