“…The other subjects had difficulty in performing ADIM after an 8 mmHg increase, since the movements of the pelvis and other joints were affected. In addition, almost all of the participants in the present study used many other movement strategies to perform ADIM when pressure was increased by up to 10 mmHg from 40 mmHg10,11,12 ) . Therefore, for successful ADIM, we recommend performing the exercise at a slightly increased pressure of about 0–2 mmHg.…”

“…Rather, slight pressure increase or maintaining the pressure of 40 mmHg has been recommended for the performance of ADIM8 ) . This lack of definitive information has led to the use of diverse levels of pressure when using a PBU, depending on the researchers’ intentions9,10,11,12 ) . For this reason, the aim of the present study was to determine the appropriate pressure variation for performing a successful ADIM, by measuring thickness variations in the abdominal muscles and their contraction ratios in response to pressure variations of a PBU during performance of ADIM in the supine position.…”

“…Voluntary PFMs contractions were drawn in and lifted [6,9]. Through the ADIM, the lower abdominal wall was quietly drawn in toward the direction of the spine [6]. Anal contraction was performed by lifting and squeezing the anus.…”

“…The last position was hip adductor muscle contraction, where the participant held a ball between the sides of both knees in a crook-lying position. All contraction positions were performed while breathing normally [6]. The participants practiced each position prior to the data collection procedure.…”
