TRUNK AND HIP ELECTROMYOGRAPHIC ACTIVITY DURING SINGLE LEG SQUAT EXERCISES DO SEX DIFFERENCES EXIST?

摘要

Researchers have identified sex‐differences in lower extremity muscle activation during functional activities that involve landing and cutting maneuvers. However, less research has been conducted to determine if muscle activation differences occur during rehabilitation exercises. The purpose of this investigation was to determine if sex‐differences exist for activation amplitudes of the trunk and hip muscles during four single leg squat (SLS) exercises.
