EFFICACY OF PERTURBATION-ENHANCED NEUROMUSCULAR TRAINING ON HAMSTRING AND QUADRICEPS ONSET TIME, ACTIVATION AND KNEE FLEXION DURING A TUCK-JUMP TASK

摘要

Background Deficits in dynamic neuromuscular control of the knee may contribute to the higher incidence of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), specifically in female athletes. Little is known about the effects of preventive training programs on muscle onset time and activation during functional tasks.
