Abstract: Can, EN, Harput, G, and Turgut, E. Shoulder and scapular muscle activity during low and high plank variations with different body-weight-bearing statuses. J Strength Cond Res XX(X): 000–000, 2023—This study investigated the activation levels and activation ratios of shoulder and scapular muscles during low plank (LP) and high plank (HP) variations, with varying levels of body-mass support, including 4-point, 3-pod, and 2-point body-weight-bearing (BWB) statuses. The study was conducted with 21 healthy men (mea… Show more

“…In the position used for KOJI AWARENESS TM scoring, the activity of the serratus anterior muscles, which act on scalene protraction, and the abdominal muscle group, which stabilizes the trunk against gravity, is important [26]. In particular, the closer the trunk approaches the horizontal and the longer the lever arm, the greater the activity of the serratus anterior and abdominal muscle groups required to maintain posture [30]. The KOJI AWARENESS TM score for “upper extremity stability and strength” reflects the function of the shoulder abductor and trunk flexor muscles to some extent.…”
