Sentences with phrase «knee extension training»

Using eccentric - only knee extension training, Guilhem et al. (2013) assessed the effect of constant load and isokinetic external load types on joint - angle specific changes in torque and EMG amplitude.

In one study, Remaud et al. (2010) assessed joint angle - specific changes in maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) torque and in neural drive after isotonic and isokinetic types of external load, using knee extension training.

Not exact matches

The hamstrings cross two joints — the knee joint and the hip joint — so they need to be trained with the help of exercises that target the knee flexion function and the hip extension function of the hamstring muscle separately.

The most important function of the hams is hip extension, which as you can guess, is vital for explosiveness, sprinting, jumping and overall pelvic mobility, but they also play an important role in stabilizing the knee joint, so it's easy to understand how a pair weak, underdeveloped hams will diminish the effectiveness of your leg training, make you look like a novice and leave you at risk for imbalance and injury.

This exercise trains the hamstrings» two functions simultaneously — hip extension and knee flexion — like few other exercises can.

It trains a lot of muscle groups at the same time, trains movement patterns that are heavily relied upon in rugby (hip and knee extension + a ton torso stability), and it can be heavily loaded, which lends itself to strength development.

Training the jerk may require improving knee extension strength, and the jerk may transfer best to movements requiring substantial net knee joint moments.

When I use the Power Snatch in training my athletes, my goal is to make them more powerful for their sport and also to teach and train a powerful triple extension (extension of hip, knees, and ankles).

Sleds are an excellent tool to train athletic hip extension without subjecting your knees to insane joint stress.

Moreover, supplementation with BA for 4 — 10 weeks has been shown to increase knee extension torque by up to 6 % [143], improve workload and time to fatigue during high intensity cardio [144 — 148], improve muscle resistance to fatigue during strength training [149], increase lean mass by approximately 1 kg [147] and significantly reduce perceptions of fatigue [150].

A special variation often used in track & field also uses the extension of the ankle at the end of the ascent and therefore trains, the extension of the hip, knee and ankle (the triple extension).

Looking at the movement of the squat, it trains the flexion and extension of the hip and knees.

As a group, the hamstrings can therefore be trained by exercises that involve either hip extension or knee flexion.

In a study on 46 subjects, individuals using UC - II ® in combination with a training protocol significantly increased their range of motion on knee extensions compared to subjects using a placebo (81 vs 74 degrees).

1In a study on 46 subjects, individuals using a core ingredient in Six Star ® Joint & Muscle Recovery in combination with a training protocol significantly increased their range of motion on knee extensions compared to subjects using a placebo (81 vs. 74 degrees).

In certain trials of older men and women, training with whole body vibration significantly improved muscle torque and power, and were proportionately greatest in plantarflexion and to a lesser extent knee extension, while hip flexion and extension, and knee flexion and dorsiflexion measures were unaltered.

Hamstrings energy absorption can be enhanced by eccentric - only or accentuated eccentric training for knee flexion (flywheel leg curl or Nordic curl) or hip extension (single - leg back extension).

Test of transfer (long - term): Strength training that targets the hip extensors close to full extension (such as with the hip thrust), and the knee extensors at around 40 degrees from full extension (such as with the quarter squat), may well transfer better to sprinting than strength training that targets the hip and knee extensors at other joint angles.

Training to increase the strength and size of the gluteus maximus may be better performed with movements that limit knee extension (e.g. hip thrusts and back extensions) compared to with movements that involve substantial knee extension (squats and step ups).

Firstly, since most compound resistance training exercises (e.g. squats) involve combined hip and knee extension, this indicates that maximum gluteus maximus development may be difficult with traditional exercises.
