Trunk coordination in dancers and nondancers.
Variability, or how a task changes across trials, may reveal differences between athletes of differing skill levels. The purpose of this study was to examine trunk and lower extremity (LE) single joint kinematic variability and intersegmental coordination variability in dancers and nondancers during bipedal vertical dance jumps (sautés). Twenty healthy females, 10 with no formal dance training ...
متن کاملCentral common drive to antagonistic ankle muscles in relation to short-term cocontraction training in nondancers and professional ballet dancers.
Optimization of cocontraction of antagonistic muscles around the ankle joint has been shown to involve plastic changes in spinal and cortical neural circuitries. Such changes may explain the ability of elite ballet dancers to maintain a steady balance during various ballet postures. Here we investigated whether short-term cocontraction training in ballet dancers and nondancers leads to changes ...
متن کاملRelationship between muscle cocontraction and proficiency in whole-body sensorimotor synchronization: a comparison study of street dancers and nondancers.
In this study, we investigated muscle cocontraction during a street dance movement task to provide evidence that the level of muscle cocontraction is associated with degree of proficiency in whole-body sensorimotor synchronization movement. Skilled street dancers and nondancers were required to synchronize a knee-bending movement in a standing position to a metronome beat. The dancer group show...
متن کاملEffect of ACL reconstruction on multi-joint coordination in dancers
INTRODUCTION Both semitendinosus-gracilis (STG) and patella tendon bone (PTB) are frequently selected grafts for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in dancers. Although STG and PTB reconstruction outcomes appear to be outwardly similar when assessing the knee joint in isolation, it is unclear whether there are limitations in multi-joint control following these procedures. Kinematic...
متن کاملMulti-segmental postural coordination in professional ballet dancers.
Ballet dancers have heightened balance skills, but previous studies that compared dancers to non-dancers have not quantified patterns of multi-joint postural coordination. This study utilized a visual tracking task that required professional ballet dancers and untrained control participants to sway with the fore-aft motion of a target while standing on one leg, at target frequencies of 0.2 and ...
