This study examined the effects of prior upper body exercise on subsequent high-intensity
cycling exercise tolerance and associated changes in neuromuscular function and …

The purpose of this study was to establish the effects of different hip rotations during
isometric side-lying hip abduction (SHA) in subjects with gluteus medius (Gmed) weakness …

Over the past decade, linear and nonlinear surface electromyography (EMG) variables
highlighting different components of fatigue have been developed. In this study, we tested …

Background An age-related decline in standing balance control in the medio-lateral
direction is associated with increased risk of falls. A potential approach to improve postural …

Voluntary surface electromyography (sEMG) amplitude is known to be influenced by both
electrode position and subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness, and these factors likely …

Gait is a common but rather complex activity that supports mobility in daily life. It requires
indeed sophisticated coordination of lower and upper limbs, controlled by the nervous …

Background Strengthening and activation of the gluteus maximus and gluteus medius while
minimizing the contribution of the tensor fascia latae are important components in the …

Widespread use of electromyography (EMG) as an assessment and biofeedback method
may be limited by costly commercial systems. Low-cost devices are available; however their …

Background Core stabilization has been utilized for rehabilitation and prevention of lower
limb musculoskeletal injuries. Previous studies showed that activation of the abdominal core …

Background Approximately 70% of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures occur during
single foot contact in sport (Boden et al. 2009; Olsen et al. 2004). Cohort studies that …
