The Effect of Self-Myofascial Release on the Pennation Angle of the Vastus Medialis Oblique and the Vastus Lateralis in Athletic Male Individuals: An Ultrasound Investigation [PDF]

International Journal of Sports Physical Therapy, 2022
# Background Maintenance of patellar stability requires a balance between the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) and the vastus lateralis (VL). The imbalance between these muscles is thought to be implicated in the etiology of patellofemoral pain (PFP ...

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 (

The Effect of Patellar Medial Glide Taping and Vastus Medialis Oblique Taping on Vastus Medialis Oblique and Vastus Lateralis Activity During Wall Squat

Physical Therapy Korea
Background: A disrupted activation balance or temporal control between the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) and vastus lateralis (VL) muscles can cause excessive patellar lateral gliding, leading to patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS).
