The effect of isometric contractions of upper and lower limb muscles on the ultrasonic thickness of the transversus abdominis muscle
Background: The transverse abdominis (TrA) muscle is one of the most important muscles that contribute to the stability of the lumbar spine. Strengthening of trunk muscles that have a significant role in trunk stability is very important in the field of professional sport, sport medicine and rehabilitation of patient with low back pain (LBP). Identifying the exercises that can improve the stren...
متن کاملThe Effect of Core Stability Exercises on Lower Limb Alignment, Upper and Lower Limb Function in Kyokushin Girls
Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of core stability exercises in the trunk area on lower limb alignment and lower and upper limb function in Kyokushin athletes. Methods: The statistical sample of the research consisted of 30 female kyokushin players aged 14-18 years, who were randomly divided into two control and experimental groups. The control group perform...
متن کاملFrequency response of vestibular reflexes in neck, back, and lower limb muscles.
Vestibular pathways form short-latency disynaptic connections with neck motoneurons, whereas they form longer-latency disynaptic and polysynaptic connections with lower limb motoneurons. We quantified frequency responses of vestibular reflexes in neck, back, and lower limb muscles to explain between-muscle differences. Two hypotheses were evaluated: 1) that muscle-specific motor-unit properties...
متن کاملEffects of leg pedaling on early latency cutaneous reflexes in upper 2 limb muscles
31 The functional coupling of neural circuits between the upper and lower 32 limbs involving rhythmic movements is of interest to both motor control 33 research and rehabilitation science. This coupling can be detected by 34 examining the effect of remote rhythmic limb movement on the modulation 35 of reflex amplitude in stationary limbs. The present study investigated the 36 extent to which rh...
متن کاملOrigin of directionally tuned responses in lower limb muscles to unpredictable upper limb disturbances
Unpredictable forces which perturb balance are frequently applied to the body through interaction between the upper limb and the environment. Lower limb muscles respond rapidly to these postural disturbances in a highly specific manner. We have shown that the muscle activation patterns of lower limb muscles are organized in a direction specific manner which changes with lower limb stability. An...
