The Effect of Hip Adduction on the Activation of the Vastus Medialis Oblique and the Vastus Lateralis [PDF]

Journal of the Korean Academy of Clinical Electrophysiology, 2010
Purpose : The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of hip adduction using a ball on the activation of the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) and the vastus lateralis (VL) during dynamic semisquat exercises. Methods : Twenty seven participants performed three repetitions of a double-leg semisquat and squeeze semisquat (semisquat with hip ...

EMG Activation of the Vastus Medialis Oblique and Vastus Lateralis During Four Rehabilitative Exercises [PDF]

The Open Rehabilitation Journal, 2012
The purpose of this study was to compare four common rehabilitation exercises used in physical therapy clinics for activating the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) and vastus lateralis (VL). Thirty-four subjects, aged 22-28 years, without patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) (18 females and 16 males) were recruited.

Effects of autoregulated and non-autoregulated blood flow restriction on vastus medialis oblique responses during low-load resistance exercise [PDF]

Frontiers in Sports and Active Living
Introduction/purposeBlood flow restriction (BFR) training is a viable strategy for inducing muscle hypertrophy and strength gains using low external loads. This study investigated the acute effects of autoregulated BFR (AR-BFR) and non-autoregulated BFR (

Comprehensive Medial Knee Four‐Arm Reconstruction to Address Complex Instability With Hamstring Autograft [PDF]

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Medial knee ligament injuries are increasingly recognized as complex, multiplanar lesions, resulting not only in simple medial instability but also anteromedial rotatory instability, anteromedial instability, posteromedial instability, posteromedial rotatory instability, and post‐traumatic medial asymmetric hyperextension.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using Double Limbed Rectus Femoris Autograft [PDF]

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction is routinely performed when conservative treatment fails and patients present with recurrent patellar dislocations. Most described techniques require fixation or some type of bony procedure on the patella.

Electromygraphic Activity of the Vastus Medialis Oblique and Vastus Lateralis Muscles During Selected Exercises

Journal of Manual and Manipulative Therapy, 1996
AbstractThe purpose of this study was to determine if the vastus medialis oblique:vastus lateralis (VMO:VL)integrated electromyographic (IEMG) ratios differed between selected exercises. The EMG activity of the VMO and VL muscles were measured in 54 normal subjects during various exercises. Subjects ranged in age from 15–49 years (X=27.5, SD=7.01). The
