Purpose This study aimed to compare and rank gluteal muscle forces in eight hip-focused
exercises performed with and without external resistance and describe the underlying fiber …

Context: Gluteal-muscle strength has been identified as an important component of injury
prevention and rehabilitation in several common knee injuries. However, many …

Study Design Experimental laboratory study. Objectives To quantify and compare
electromyographic signal amplitude of the gluteus maximus and gluteus medius muscles …
