Electromyography During Common Exercises Used in Rehabilitation

NCT01400347 | Withdrawn DMC

• 1 other identifier: EMGMarko
• Study Type: observational
• Target: N/A
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

It is generally accepted that the effectiveness of an exercise can be controlled not only by the weight or resistance applied but also by doing an exercise that would better target the desired muscle. The purpose of this study is to obtain objective information regarding selected lower extremity muscle activity during specific exercise and the influence of fatigue and speed on muscular activation.

Conditions

Motor Activity

Keywords

Motor activity, lower extremity, physical exercise

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years - 35 Years
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: Yes
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

We will recruit healthy, young (18-35 y.o.) subjects. Following signing the inform consent, potential participants will be given a health risk questionnaires to identify possible cardiovascular and/or orthopedic risks to strength training exercise. Answering YES to any of the questions on the PAR Q will be considered an exclusion criterion. In addition we will use a MEDICAL HISTORY QUESTIONNAIRE (included at the end of this form). Specifically, subjects who are at risk due to recent (within the last year) neuro-musculo-skeletal injury to lower extremities will be excluded from the study. Also, we will exclude subjects who reported any significant respiratory-cardiovascular disease, which is not yet under control..

You may qualify if:

• Healthy adults age 18-35

You may not qualify if:

• Subjects who report any significant respiratory-cardiovascular disease, which is not yet under control.
• Known orthopedic risks to strength training exercise
