Muscle 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...
متن کاملThe Effects of Different Gait Speeds and Lower Arm Weight on the Activities of the Latissimus Dorsi, Gluteus Medius, and Gluteus Maximus Muscles
[Purpose] This study researched the effects of different gait speeds and lower arm weight on the activities of the latissimus dorsi, gluteus medius, and gluteus maximus muscles. [Subjects] Fourteen healthy adult men participated in this study. [Methods] All the participants carried out walking on a treadmill at speeds of 3.5 km/h and 5.5 km/h for half a minute. During treadmill gait, electromyo...
متن کاملThe Effect of a Vertical Load on Gluteus Medius Activity and Gait Characteristics during Walking
[Purpose] The present study examined the activity and the gait characteristics of the gluteus medius and the trunk stability muscles during the stance phase of gait on level ground when a vertical load corresponding to 0%, 1%, or 2% of body weight was placed on the lower extremities during the swing phase of the gait. [Methods] The subjects were 40 young males aged between 21 and 30 years. The ...
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 کاملMuscle Volume Recovery of the Gluteus Maximus, Gluteus Medius, and Thigh Muscles after Hip Arthropasty
It has been reported that atrophy of the muscles around the hip and thigh occurs in patients with hip osteoarthritis (OA) (Arokoski 2002, Suetta 2007, Rasch 2007). Total hip arthroplasty (THA) reduces pain with a resulting increase in the quality of life (QOL) and activity levels. The muscular strength of the hip and thigh also recovers. However, there have been few reports (Adolphson 1993, Ras...
