Flexion-Relaxation Response to Cyclic Lumbar Flexion

Clinical Biomechanics, 2004
The epidemiology classify cyclic lumbar flexion as a risk factor for the development of cumulative low back disorder. Experimental biomechanical data confirming the epidemiology in humans are lacking. The purpose of this study, therefore, is to investigate the flexion relaxation response to sustained cyclic lumbar flexion in humans.Twelve normal ...

Repeated Spinal Flexion Modulates the Flexion–Relaxation Phenomenon

Clinical Biomechanics, 2003
To determine if repeated spinal flexion and loading modulate the deactivation of lumbar muscles near full flexion (flexion-relaxation).Repeated measures experimental study of the effect of repetitive trunk flexion and added mass on the flexion-relaxation phenomenon.Repeated flexion causes muscular fatigue, creep of passive tissues and diminished ...
