Isokinetic dynamometry of knee flexors and extensors: comparative study among non-athletes, jumper athletes and runner athletes

Isokinetic dynamometry of knee flexors and extensors: comparative study among non-athletes, jumper athletes and runner athletes.

UNLABELLED Participation in intensive sports activities leads to muscular specializations that may generate alterations in involved articular forces and cause static (posture) and dynamic changes (alterations of articular stability, coordination, etc.). Prevention of injury requires specific functional muscular evaluation in all athletes and for any kind of sport. OBJECTIVE To dynamically eva...

Isokinetic dynamometry of the knee extensors and flexors in

  Background :This paper explores the gender-related bilateral differences of extensor and flexor torques of the knee joint at low and high angular velocities in Iranian healthy males and females.   Methods : 70 healthy subjects (29 males (26.61±4.34 yrs and 41 females with average age of 23.07±3.70 yrs)) were participated in this study. Isokinetic peak torque values for knee extensors and flex...

Isokinetic Evaluation of Hip Flexors and Extensors Muscles in Athletes of Rhythmic Gymnastics

Rhythmic Gymnastics (RG) is a competitive sport that due to its aesthetic and technical requirements makes athletes seek to maximize their technical performance. Elements inherent to the sport are based on movements of hip extension, flexion and abduction, which explain the need for producing considerable levels of strength in different muscle lengths and speeds. The aim of the study was to eva...
