Walking exercise combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation of antagonist resistance improved muscle strength and physical function for elderly people: A pilot study

Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2016
Both aerobic exercise and resistance exercise are recommended to enhance health in elderly people. A hybrid training system (HTS), that provides resistance to the motion of a volitionally contracting agonist muscle by electrically stimulating its ...

Effects of Walking Exercise on Isokinetic Muscular Function [PDF]

The Journal of the Korea Contents Association, 2009
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of a brisk walking intervention for 8weeks on isokinetic muscular function factor(strength, power, endurance). The following results were found from the current study: First, Isokinetic muscle function(strength, power, endurance) on in extension and flexion was significant exercise group and interaction ...

Similar dynamic tibiofemoral movements during jump‐landing and walking but distinct hamstrings strength across ACL reconstruction autograft types at mid‐term follow‐up

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Dynamic tibiofemoral movements following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with quadriceps tendon (QT) autografts have not yet been compared to other autografts. We aimed to compare dynamic anterior tibial translation (ATTd) and internal tibial rotation (ITRd) during jump‐landing and walking among patients with QT, bone ...

Corticomuscular Coherence for Upper Arm Flexor and Extensor Muscles During Isometric Exercise and Cyclically Isokinetic Movement

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Cortical-muscular functional coupling reflects the interaction between the cerebral cortex and the muscle activities. Corticomuscular coherence (CMC) has been extensively revealed in sustained contractions of various upper- and lower-limb muscles during ...

ERIK: an isokinetic exercise device for the lower limbs [PDF]

ROBOMECH Journal, 2018
Abstract In the current study, we tested a prototype of an isokinetic exercise device for the lower limbs, named the ERIK. The ERIK enables a type of single-limb squat exercise with a translational load on the swing leg in a closed kinetic chain, putting load on the muscles of the stance leg in the standing position.

Quadriceps tendon autograft is not inferior to bone‐patellar tendon‐bone or hamstring autograft in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in terms of subjective patient‐reported outcomes: Two‐year results of a multicenter randomised controlled study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the effectiveness of quadriceps tendon (QT) compared to bone‐patellar tendon‐bone (BPTB) and hamstring tendon (HT) autografts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) regarding patient‐reported outcomes 2 years postoperatively.
