Exercise effect on electromyographic activity of the vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis muscles.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether the vastus medialis oblique muscle (VMO) had greater electrical activity than the vastus lateralis muscle (VL) when hip adduction and medial (internal) tibial rotation exercises were performed. Electrical activity of the VMO and VL was measured on 25 healthy subjects during maximal-effort isometric contractions of hip adduction and medial tibia...
متن کاملActivities of the Vastus Lateralis and Vastus Medialis Oblique Muscles during Squats on Different Surfaces
[Purpose] The purpose of the present study was to examine the effects of squat exercises performed on different surfaces on the activity of the quadriceps femoris muscle in order to provide information on support surfaces for effective squat exercises. [Subjects and Method] Fourteen healthy subjects performed squat exercises for five seconds each on three different support surfaces: hard plates...
متن کاملAn electromyographical study to investigate the effects of patellar taping on the vastus medialis/vastus lateralis ratio in asymptomatic participants.
It is commonly theorised that patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is caused by maltracking due to vastus medialis (VM) weakness relative to the vastus lateralis (VL). Despite this being a controversial theory, patellar taping is a commonly used technique that purports to correct this muscle imbalance by increasing the VM/VL ratio. The effects of different forms of taping on vasti muscle activit...
متن کاملPatellar taping increases vastus medialis oblique activity in the presence of patellofemoral pain.
A common rehabilitation strategy for patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS), which lacks scientific evidence, includes pulling the patella medially with tape to reduce pain and increase the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) muscle activity. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of various patellar taping procedures on force production, EMG activity of the VMO and vastus lateralis (VL) mu...
متن کاملThe effect of patellar taping on the onset of vastus medialis obliquus and vastus lateralis muscle activity in persons with patellofemoral pain.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of patellar taping on the onset of activity of the vastus medialis obliquus muscle (VMO) and the vastus lateralis muscle (VL). SUBJECTS AND METHODS Fourteen female subjects with patellar pain walked up and down stairs in two conditions: (1) with the patellofemoral joint of the painful lower extremity taped so that ...
