Endurance of the Dorsal and Ventral Muscles in the Neck [PDF]
Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, 2020 Endurance of the muscles of the neck are rarely studied. This study measured the endurance index (EI) of the sternocleidomastoid (SCM) and upper trapezius muscles of the neck (trap). The vastus lateralis (VL) was used for comparison. Skeletal muscle endurance of twelve healthy subjects, age 19–22 years, were tested on their SCM and trap in random order
