“…''Maximal capacity'' was defined when muscle fibrillation occurred and continued for three consecutive seconds. These tests were previously described by Liebenson (1998), and therefore are not fully detailed in this paper.…”

“…The trunk strength and stability training was performed over 20 individual sessions during 7 weeks (Clark and Cummings, 2002;Liebenson, 1998) on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The training sessions lasted 50 min and were always conducted by the same physiotherapist.…”

“…Trunk stabilization exercises to strengthen the trunk muscle includes performing curl-ups in a supine position [5], quadruped exercise where the arms and legs are lifted while assuming a quadruped position [6], and the dead-bug exercise where the arms and legs are alternately crossed while…”

“…These exercise methods enhances the abdominal muscles which are important for providing trunk stabilization during trunk and upper extremity movements, and are effective in promoting overall function [5,6]. Of these exercises, the dead-bug exercise is an effective exercise for promoting stabilization of the trunk and pelvis and is performed by alternately moving the arms and legs while maintaining the abdominal draw-in maneuver, which activates the rectus abdominis and oblique muscles.…”

Objective: There are many types of exercises with upper and lower-limb action for activation of abdominal muscles for trunk stabilization. A comparison of the different exercise methods been very useful to enhance the result from the exercise for treatment. The purpose of this study was to investigate through surface electromyography (EMG) the changes in abdominal muscle activity during the performance of three different dead-bug exercise methods performed at three different speeds. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: The subjects were 30 healthy adults (13 males and 17 females). We instructed the subjects to perform three different dead-bug exercises. We also applied three different speeds to the dead-bug exercises; 60 bpm, 90 bpm, and 120 bpm with use of a metronome. The assessment of EMG was percentage of maximal voluntary isometric contraction on the rectus abdominis (RA), external oblique (EO), and internal oblique (IO). Results: EMG activation of the RA, EO and IO muscles was significantly greater at the higher speed (p<0.05). There was a significant increase in abdominal muscle activity during the dead-bug exercise performed with both the upper and lower extremities compared to that with only the upper extremity or the lower extremities (p<0.05).Conclusions: These findings demonstrate that the performance of the dead-bug exercise with both the upper and lower extremities combined at a high speed is more effective compared to other exercises. Therefore, it is suggested that more favourable and effective outcomes may occur when the type and speed of the exercise is chosen appropriately.

“…However, pain may be reduced if the individual is able to train muscular motor patterns to increase spinal stability and restrain aberrant micromotion (10). Additionally, specific exercises that build core body strength have been shown to reduce pain in chronic low back pain patients (15,17). The purpose of this study was to determine if five core strength exercises would mitigate pain severity and related disability in U.S. Air Force helicopter aircrew members with low back pain.…”
