A literature review of studies evaluating gluteus maximus and gluteus medius activation during rehabilitation exercises.
Recently, clinicians have focused much attention on the importance of hip strength for the rehabilitation of not only patients with low back pain but also lower extremity pathology. Properly designing a rehabilitation program for the gluteal muscles requires careful consideration of biomechanical principles, such as length of the external moment arm, gravity, and subject positioning. Understand...
متن کاملEffective exercises for targeting the gluteus medius.
CLINICAL SCENARIO The gluteus medius (GM) is thought to play an important role in stabilizing the pelvis and controlling femoral adduction and internal rotation during functional activity. GM weakness, resulting in decreased stabilization and control, has been suggested to be related to lower extremity dysfunction and injury. Many clinicians focus on strengthening the GM to improve lower extrem...
متن کاملGluteus medius muscle activation during isometric muscle contractions.
CONTEXT Functional subdivisions are proposed to exist in the gluteus medius (GM) muscle. Dysfunction of the GM, in particular its functional subdivisions, is commonly implicated in lower limb pathologies. However, there is a lack of empirical evidence examining the role of the subdivisions of the GM. OBJECTIVES To compare the activation of the functional subdivisions of the GM (anterior, midd...
متن کاملInvestigation of Gluteus Medius and Biceps Femoris Activity in Three Plyometric Exercises
Purpose: This study was accomplished to investigate the electromyographic activity of 3 plyometric exercises (tuck jump and single leg hop in sagittal and frontal planes) to find out the appropriate procedures for strengthening biceps femoris and gluteus medius muscles. Methods: The kind of study is applied and data were collected from the supervised exercises of 15 male athletes without i...
متن کاملMuscle Activity of the Gluteus Medius at Different Gait Speeds
[Purpose] The present study aimed to determine the changes in the muscle activities of the gluteus medius, latissimus dorsi, and gluteus maximus at different gait speeds, to collect basic data for the study of the gluteus medius. [Subjects and Methods] The subjects were 18 young and healthy male adults whose mean age, height, and weight were 26.4 years, 173.37 cm, and 72.5 kg, respectively. Ele...
