Prolonged Intermittent Trunk Flexion Increases Trunk Muscles Reflex Gains and Trunk Stiffness
The goal of the present study was to determine the effects of prolonged, intermittent flexion on trunk neuromuscular control. Furthermore, the potential beneficial effects of passive upper body support during flexion were investigated. Twenty one healthy young volunteers participated during two separate visits in which they performed 1 hour of intermittent 60 seconds flexion and 30 seconds rest...
متن کاملTrunk stiffness increases with steady-state effort.
Trunk stiffness was measured in healthy human subjects as a function of steady-state preload efforts in different horizontal loading directions. Since muscle stiffness increases with increased muscle activation associated with increasing effort, it is believed that coactivation of muscles helps to stiffen and stabilize the trunk. This paper tested whether increased steady-state preload effort i...
متن کاملLaughing: a demanding exercise for trunk muscles.
Social, psychological, and physiological studies have provided evidence indicating that laughter imposes an increased demand on trunk muscles. It was the aim of this study to quantify the activation of trunk muscles during laughter yoga in comparison with crunch and back lifting exercises regarding the mean trunk muscle activity. Muscular activity during laughter yoga exercises was measured by ...
متن کاملThe Effects of Push-ups with the Trunk Flexed on the Shoulder and Trunk Muscles
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to compare the activity of the shoulder and trunk muscles in two push-up positions: standard push-ups and push-ups with the trunk flexed. [Subjects] Fifteen young adult males participated in the study. [Methods] This study measured the clavicular and sternocostal portions of the pectoralis major, the serratus anterior, and the rectus abdominis during push...
متن کاملThe Evaluation Of Trunk Muscles After Trunk Exercises Using The Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Introduction: Trunk exercises are often prescribed for patients and athletes to treat or prevent low back injuries. For considering more effective exercises, to investigate the activity of deep trunk muscles during trunk exercises is needed. The electromyography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have been using for assessing the muscle activity and recruitments during exercises. Although the...
