Running and posture [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Human Sport and Exercise - 2019 - Spring Conferences of Sports Science, 2019
An athlete, to get the best result, brings the body to its maximum through targeted and personalized training. To do this, the athlete must be in a state of psycho-physical balance and it is possible not only thanks to proper training, but above all to a correct posture.

Coordination of opposing sex-specific and core muscle groups regulates male tail posture during Caenorhabditis elegans male mating behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background To survive and reproduce, animals must be able to modify their motor behavior in response to changes in the environment. We studied a complex behavior of Caenorhabditis elegans, male mating behavior, which provided a model for understanding ...

Dental Malocclusion and Its Relation to the Podal System

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2021
Background and Objective: This study analyzes the possibility that Stomatognathic and Postural systems are related by muscle chains. Malocclusion may influence the posture, contact between the foot and the ground, center of mass, footprint or vice-versa.
