Do Knee Eccentric Strength and Knee Joint Kinetrics Differ between Jumpers and Non-jumpers in Landing Activities?

چکیده
Landing is a common movement task used in investigating impact attenuation and mechanisms of impact related lower extremities injury [1-5]. In the literature, there is limited biomechanical information regarding the relationship between eccentric strength of lower extremities and impact related biomechanics in landing. It is still unclear what roles of lower extremity eccentric strength plays in impact force attenuation during landing activities. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to investigate the differences of knee eccentric strength and impact related knee biomechanics between jumpers and non-jumpers during step-off landing tasks.

Knee Muscular Control During Jump Landing in Multidirections
BACKGROUND Jump landing is a complex movement in sports. While competing and practicing, athletes frequently perform multi-planar jump landing. Anticipatory muscle activity could influence the amount of knee flexion and prepare the knee for dynamic weight bearing such as landing tasks. OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to examine knee muscle function and knee flexion excursion as at...

Purpose: An appropriate activity of the knee agonist -antagonist muscles is important to resist against abnormal abduction-adduction moments loads around knee joint and reduce the risk of knee injuries. Exercise training has been commonly used as an intervention to improve neuromuscular activity within the synergic and/or agonist-antagonist muscles. However, maximizing the effectiveness of exer...

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...
