Assessing
different trunk
exercises, Marshall et al. (2010) compared a number of swiss ball
exercises, including the plank with arms on the swiss ball,
single -
leg hip hyperextension from the push up position with
legs on the swiss ball,
single -
leg squat against a wall on a swiss ball, swiss ball roll - outs, and swiss ball rolls, rotating from lying supine on the ball and moving to prone with the upper body in contact.
Similarly, a study of four
different single -
leg exercises including those similar to step ups (wall squat, mini ‐ squat, lateral step ‐ down, and front step ‐ down) by Bolgla et al. (2014), who found that none of the
exercises led to sufficient gluteus maximus EMG amplitude for them to qualify as capable of developing the muscle.
However, Struminger et al. (2013) explored the gluteus maximus EMG amplitude during a range of
different lower body plyometrics
exercises (180 degree jump, frontal plane hurdle hop, double
leg sagittal plane hurdle hop,
single leg sagittal plane hurdle hop, and split squat jump).
