The Close Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Stability Test (CKCUES test) is a low cost shoulder functional test that could be considered as complementary and objective clinical outcome for performance evaluation. However, its reliability was tested only in recreational athletes’ males there are no studies comparing scores between sedentary active samples. purpose to examine inter intrasession of CKCUES samples male female with (SIS), healthy female, upper extremity sport specific athletes. Other...

Imbalance and weakness of the serratus anterior upper trapezius force couple have been described in patients with shoulder dysfunction. There is interest identifying exercises that selectively activate these muscles including it rehabilitation protocols. This study aims to verify UT/SA electromyographic (EMG) amplitude ratio, performed different limb on two bases support. Twelve healthy men were tested (average age = 22.8 ± 3.1 years), surface EMG was recorded from using single differential...

Objective: This study aims to investigate the effects of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on biceps brachi muscular fatigue in 20 young females. Background data: Exhausting physical activity leads fatigue, which could decrease strength, and may cause impairment motor control muscle pain. Several biochemical biophysical resources have been studied an attempt accelerate recovery fatigue. Among these, LLLT is emphasized. Methods: Twenty subjects were randomized one group placebo two sessions a...

The closed kinetic chain upper-extremity stability (CKCUES) test is a functional for the upper extremity performed in push-up position, where individuals support their body weight on 1 hand placed ground and swing opposite until touching ground, then switch hands repeat process as fast possible 15 s.To study scapular kinematic measures during CKCUES 3 different distances between hands.Experimental.Laboratory.30 healthy (15 male, female).Participants repetitions of at distance conditions:...

Abstract Background The knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint disease characterized by degradation of articular cartilage that leads to chronic inflammation. Exercise programs and photobiomodulation (PBM) are capable modulating the inflammatory process minimizing functional disability related OA. However, their association on concentration biomarkers OA development has not been studied yet. aim present study investigate effects PBM (via cluster) with physical exercise program in capacity,...

Study Design Controlled laboratory study. Objective To assess the activation of 7 shoulder muscles under 2 closed kinetic chain (CKC) tasks for upper extremity using submaximal isometric effort, thus providing relative quantification muscular effort these across CKC exercises, which may be applied to rehabilitation protocols individuals with weakness. Background exercises favor joint congruence, reduce shear load, and promote dynamic stability. Additionally, knowledge about glenohumeral...

Abstract Introduction: Basketball is one of the most popular sports involving gestures and movements that require single-leg based support. Dorsiflexion range motion (DROM), balance postural control may influence performance this sport. Objective: To compare correlate measures balance, ankle DROM between amateur basketball athletes non-athletes. Methods: Cross-sectional study, composed by 122 subjects allocated into group (CG = 61) (BG 61). These groups were subdivided two other age: 12-14...

The purpose of this study was to determine if performing isometric 3-point kneeling exercises on a Swiss ball influenced the force output and EMG activities shoulder muscles when compared with same stable base support. Twenty healthy adults performed hand placed either surface or ball. Surface recorded from posterior deltoid, pectoralis major, biceps brachii, triceps upper trapezius, serratus anterior using differential electrodes. All data were reported as percentages average root mean...

Background: Altered scapular rotation and position have been named dyskinesis. Visual dynamic assessment could be applied to classify this alteration based on the clinical observation of winging inferior medial border (Type I) or prominence entire II), by excessive superior translation scapula III). Objective: The aim study was determine if there were differences in rotations I II) III) between a group subjects with dyskinesis, diagnosed an expert physical therapist, using healthy...

Vieira, KVSG, Ciol, MA, Azevedo, PH, Pinfildi, CE, Renno, ACM, Colantonio, E, and Tucci, HT. Effects of light-emitting diode therapy on the performance biceps brachii muscle young healthy males after 8 weeks strength training: a randomized controlled clinical trial. J Strength Cond Res 33(2): 433-442, 2019-We assessed effect adding (LEDT) to an 8-week training in males. Forty-five participants were into plus LEDT, sham control groups (n = 15 each). Individuals LEDT participated performed...

O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar a atividade eletromiográfica de músculos da cintura escapular e braço entre os exercícios wall-press 90°, 45°, bench-press push-up, realizados com extremidade distal do segmento fixa sobre uma superfície estável em esforço isométrico máximo. Participaram desta pesquisa 20 voluntários sexo masculino, sedentários sem história trauma ou doenças na superior. A elétrica cabeça longa músculo bíceps braquial, porção anterior deltóide, clavicular peitoral maior...

A relação entre a amplitude do sinal eletromiográfico e força muscular (EMG-força) tem sido tomada como medida indireta da muscular. Este estudo, em 18 voluntárias saudáveis destras, visou avaliar influência posição braço na EMG-força músculos três tarefas - flexão (FB), abdução (AB) neutra (NB) enquanto se tomavam ambas as medidas: uma célula de carga foi acoplada ao conversor eletromiógrafo para registrar simultaneamente eletromiográfico. Foram analisados os sinais dos bíceps braquial,...

Electromagnetic systems for motion analysis are claimed as a precise technique tracking position and orientation of human body segments. To date, reliability electromagnetic was described only the dynamic assessment scapula motion, no studies on its resting posture or positioning were found. The aim this study to analyze intra- inter-session reliabilities absolute errors scapular at habitual in healthy individuals. Twenty-two shoulder symptom-free individuals non participants professional...

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the acute effects red infrared photobiomodulation (PBM) using a cluster device on biceps brachii muscle fatigue in young healthy males. Background: Vigorous physical activity could lead fatigue, which compromises motor control strength consequently impairs performance. positive PBM reducing onset have been highlighted. However, better wavelength with devices is not yet established. Methods: A randomized double-blind session...
