Effects of visibility and types of the ground surface on the muscle activities of the vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis. [PDF]
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of visibility and types of ground surface (stable and unstable) during the performance of squats on the muscle activities of the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) and vastus lateralis (VL). [Subjects and Methods] The subjects were 25 healthy adults in their 20s. They performed squats under four

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

Effects of the slow speed-targeting squat exercise on the vastus medialis oblique/vastus lateralis muscle ratio. [PDF]
[Purpose] This study investigated the effects of the slow speed-targeting squat exercise on the vastus medialis oblique/vastus lateralis ratio. [Subjects] Ten asymptomatic men were recruited. [Methods] The EMG activities of the vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis muscles were recorded using surface electrodes.

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

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

An imbalance of medial and lateral quadriceps control can lead to patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). The incidence rate of PFPS is twice as high in females than in males. The aims of this research were to investigate sex differences in quadriceps neuromuscular control and motor unit recruitment properties in healthy individuals comparing to those ...
