Title: Trunk muscle activation and cocontraction while resisting applied moments in a twisted posture / Steven A. Lavender, Yang-Hwei Tsuang and Gunnar B.J. AnderssonAuthor: Lavender, Steven A.
Notes: Sumario: Previous studies of twisting have revealed substantial cocontraction of agonist and antagonist muscles within the torso when torsional moments are generated. The objective of the current study was to quantify the activations and cocontraction of eight trunk muscles as subjects maintained an axially rotated trunk posture and resisted external applied bending momentsRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London and Washington. - Vol. 36, nº 10, October 1993 ; p. 1145-1157Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Columna vertebral Contracciones musculares Biomecánica Lesiones musculares Pruebas funcionales musculares Electromiografía Otros autores: Tsuang, Yang-Hwei
