Effect of Medial-Lateral, Inferior-Superior, and Rotational Positions of Palms on Muscle Recruitment during the Push-Up Exercise

The goal of the present article is to compare neuromuscular activation patterns among medial-lateral, superior-inferior, and rotational positions palms for 14 selective muscles during push-up exercise. Muscle activity kinematics information fifteen males (68.35 ± 7.18 kg, 175 3.40 cm, 24.50 7.50 years) were recorded by Myon Electromyographic (EMG) system Vicon motion capture, respectively. EMG in anterior deltoid, middle posterior infraspinatus, upper pectoralis major, lower latissimus dorsi, triceps lateral, medial, biceps brachii, trapezius, trapezius was measured. According results, narrow position increased brachii (lateral medial head), muscles, while wide enhanced major muscle. Superior inferior (lower, middle, upper) muscles. Internal all upper), external about muscle various types push-ups can potentially help athletes, coaches, personal trainers, clinicians apply modified exercises make new systematic useful exercise plans.
