BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of trunk extensor
muscles fatigue on undisturbed postural control in young healthy adults. METHODS: Fifteen …

The purpose of this study was to induce both trunk extensor and abdominal muscle fatigue,
on separate occasions, and compare their effects on standing postural control and trunk …

Muscle fatigue can influence the various mechanisms that regulate balance. Few studies
have investigated the effects of trunk extensor muscle fatigue on postural control. The …

Study Design. A split-plot experimental design was used to evaluate the influence of
posture, trunk angle, and rotational velocity on peak torque output and myoelectric activity …

Background Fatigability and postural control deficits are both serious concerns in a variety of
chronic musculoskeletal conditions. Research has shown that muscle fatigue may adversely …

The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in postural sway and strategy elicited
by lumbar extensor muscle fatigue. Specifically, changes in center of mass (COM), center of …

OBJECTIVE: Previous studies have demonstrated that ankle muscle fatigue alters postural
sway. Our aim was to better understand postural control mechanisms during upright stance …

Although the effect of muscle fatigue on posture is apparent, results are inconsistent across
studies and this may be due to differences in the fatigue protocol, postural stance used …

Although motor output of the postural function clearly influences postural performance in
young and older subjects, no relationship has been formally established between them …
