Comparison of thoracic and lumbar erector spinae muscle activation before and after a golf practice session [PDF]
Lower back pain is commonly associated with golfers. The study aimed: to determine whether thoracic- and lumbar-erector-spinae muscle display signs of muscular fatigue after completing a golf practice session, and to examine the effect of the completed ...

Motor unit potentials of the erector spinae muscle by concentric needle electromyography
AbstractIntroductionThe needle electromyography (EMG) serves to supply additional information in patients with suspected neuromuscular disorders. We aimed to provide motor unit potential (MUP) data by concentric needle EMG in the erector spinae (ES) in comparison with biceps brachii (BB) and lateral vastus (LV).MethodsElectromyography MUP data (n) were

Effects of Six Weeks of Modified and Standard Nordic Hamstring Exercises on Electromyography of Hamstring, Hip And Trunk Muscles and Sprint Performance in Young Male Football Players [PDF]
Background and Aims hamstring injury is the most common injury in football. Nordic hamstring exercise (NHE) is one of the best hamstring injury prevention strategies. This study was aims to compare the effect of six weeks of standard NHE and modified NHE

An Investigation Into the Electrical Activity of Tender, Resting Paraspinal Muscles Using Surface Electromyography: A Pilot Study [PDF]
Abnormal resting paraspinal muscle activity has been claimed to be responsible for changes in spinal tissue texture which are detectible by manual palpation.

Active exoskeleton reduces erector spinae muscle activity during lifting
Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) are a widespread problem, often regarding the lumbar region. Exoskeletons designed to support the lower back could be used in physically demanding professions with the intention of reducing the strain on the musculoskeletal system, e.g., by lowering task-related muscle activation.

Determination of the motor unit behavior of lumbar erector spinae muscles through surface EMG decomposition technology in healthy female subjects [PDF]
Introduction: The aims of this study were to determine the motor unit behavior of the erector spinae muscles and to assess whether differences exist between the dominant/non-dominant sides of the back muscles.
