Biomechanical Functions of Latissimus Dorsi Muscle in Baseball Pitching
The latissimus dorsi (LD) muscle is primarily considered as an extensor and adductor of the shoulder. However, during the large range of motion required in baseball pitching, it may change its function in different positions and orientations of the humerus in reference to the trunk. Overuse of the LD muscle especially for a baseball pitcher may affect his pitching performance [1]. It could also...
متن کاملKinematic Analysis of the Wrist and Forearm During Baseball Pitching
Previous researchers studying baseball pitching have compared kinematic and kinetic parameters among different types of pitches, focusing on the trunk, shoulder, and elbow. The lack of data on the wrist and forearm limits the understanding of clinicians, coaches, and researchers regarding the mechanics of baseball pitching and the differences among types of pitches. The purpose of this study wa...
متن کاملCardiovascular control during whole body exercise.
It has been considered whether during whole body exercise the increase in cardiac output is large enough to support skeletal muscle blood flow. This review addresses four lines of evidence for a flow limitation to skeletal muscles during whole body exercise. First, even though during exercise the blood flow achieved by the arms is lower than that achieved by the legs (∼160 vs. ∼385 ml·min(-1)·1...
متن کاملCharacteristic ground-reaction forces in baseball pitching.
Overhand throwing requires contributions from and interaction between all limb segments. Most previous investigations have concentrated on the throwing arm itself, yet poor mechanics at the arm may originate in the lower extremities. Multicomponent ground-reaction forces of both the push-off and landing limbs were measured in six collegiate and one high school level baseball pitchers. Full body...
متن کاملWhole-body vibration applied during upper body exercise improves performance.
Whole-body vibration (WBV) training has exercisers perform static and dynamic resistance training exercises on a ground-based platform. Exposure to WBV exposure has demonstrated benefits and no effect on lower body strength, power, and performance. The aim of this study was to determine if WBV exposure (50 Hz, 2.51 mm) has any potentiating effects postexercise by measuring the kinematic variabl...
