The researchers suggested that these findings imply that hip flexor length affects gluteus maximus and hamstrings EMG amplitudes
during squatting motions, at least during eccentric muscle actions.
Not exact matches
During any
squat variation, the hip gets into a certain level of abduction, which is crucial because hip abduction increases the range of
motion of the hips and contributes to a more efficient hip extension.
Well, you must also force your knees out hard
during the entire
motion and push out on the sides of your shoes while you
squat.
Power good mornings increase the static strength of your back by allowing the weight to travel a few more inches forward than it would with a regular
squat,
during which you hold your back static and let all the
motion happen around your hips and knees.
ACE IFT Model Phases: Phase 2 on the isometric
squat, phase 3 for the pulling
motion to hold tension and phase 4 for the shoulders
during the rapid action to wind the ropes around one another
They report that the partial
squat produced greater medial gastrocnemius muscle activity compared to the parallel
squat, despite a greater range of ankle
motion during the parallel
squat.
This section sets out a summary of the research that has explored the joint angle movements
during the
squat exercise, using
motion analysis software in either two dimensions (2D) or three dimensions (3D).
This section sets out a summary of the research that has explored the net joint moments
during the split
squat exercise, using inverse dynamics calculations based on data from
motion analysis of joint angle movements and on ground reaction forces measured using a force plate.
Compared to the
squat or deadlift, the
motion of cycling itself is heavily quadriceps intensive - though the glutes and hamstrings may be engaged
during high intensity speed bouts while in the drops (low handlebars) or aero position, the majority of cycling up in the hoods (high handlebars) or bartops does not appreciably engage the posterior chain - certainly not to the extent that many strength athletes have developed this musculature.
Worth examining for a moment are the relative ranges of
motion for the leg
during a typical run,
during a full cycling stroke, and
during a
squat.
This section sets out a summary of the research that has explored the joint angle movements
during the split
squat exercise, using
motion analysis software in either two dimensions (2D) or three dimensions (3D).
