Brief Summary

Gluteus Medius (GM) has also been implicated in the development of Low Back Pain (LBP). GM is one of the main pelvic, where he actively participates in control of motion in the frontal and transverse plane, and hip , improving stability to the lumbopelvic-hip complex. The aim of present study was to investigate whether modifying lower limb length with a different foot insoles of 0.5, 1 and 1.5 cm in a normal population has an effect on ES and GM activity and as a consequence in LBP. As a secondary objective, in turn, to evaluate whether ES and GM activity has an effect on jumping ability as assessed through CMJ.
