Moreover, the hip extension moment measured
during deadlifts appears to be slightly greater than that measured in the traditional back squat and this may be a result of the greater peak external moment arm at the hip, (c.f. Escamilla et al. 2000; Escamilla et al. 2001b).
Not exact matches
Overall, it
appears that the middle trapezius muscle activity is greater
during the start and middle phases of the
deadlift compared to the top of the lift.
During the
deadlift, it
appears that trapezius muscle activity is greater with increasing load while
deadlift type or grip technique has no effect.
Therefore, it
appears the middle trapezius muscle activity is maximised at the trunk angle achieved
during the start and mid point of the
deadlift.
Therefore, the data
appears to indicate that the erector spinae displays superior muscle activity
during the second half of the conventional
deadlift and not necessarily at the same point as the region in which maximum force is exerted.
