Moment-angle Relations after Specific Exercise

Abstract: This study examined the amount and time-course of shifts in the moment-knee angle relation of the quadriceps (QF) and hamstring (HAM) muscles in response to different length-restricted strength training regimens. Thirty-two athletes were divided into three different training groups (G1-3): G1 performed isometric training at knee joint angles corresponding to long muscle-tendon unit (MTU) length for QF and HAM; G2 conducted concentric-eccentric contraction cycles that were restricted to a knee joint range of mo… Show more

“…The changes in the EMG activity did not appear to be a key factor in the strength increases observed in the group that trained at long muscle lengths, given that, similar to other studies (Blazevich et al 2009;Ullrich et al 2009;Noorkoiv et al 2014), we did not find any significant shift or increases in the agonist EMG amplitude. However, the group that trained at short muscle lengths showed significant increases in the EMG RMS of the KEs measured during the isokinetic test (Fig.…”

“…Isometric resistance training can be an effective alternative to dynamic training, because of its lower risk-benefit ratio (Burgess et al 2007) and the limited equipment that requires. Therefore, it is not surprising that this contraction mode is utilized in rehabilitation and physical therapy contexts and even in sports performance (Ullrich et al 2009). For example, specific angle isometric strength training programs can be applied in clinical populations where pain or impairments in some parts of the ROM are present.…”

“…It is accepted that QF and HAM force generation is needed for daily activities such as walking uphill and downhill, cycling and climbing stairs and to maintain knee joint stability (Judd et al, 2012;Stevens-Lapsley et al, 2010a;Ullrich et al, 2009;Wank et al, 1998). However, no work studied gait patterns and the moment-knee angle relations of QF and HAM in the long-term after TKA.…”
