The gluteus medius vs. thigh muscles strength ratio and their relation to electromyography amplitude during a farmer's walk exercise

Original language description

The strength ratio between hamstrings and quadriceps (H/Q) is associated with knee injuries as well as hip abductor muscle (HAB) weakness. Sixteen resistance trained men (age, 32.5 +- 4.2 years) performed 5 s maximal isometric contractions at 75o of kneeflexion/extension and 15o of hip abduction on a dynamometer. After this isometric test they performed a Farmer's walk exercise to find out if the muscle strength ratio predicted the electromyography amplitude expressed as a percentage of maximum voluntary isometric contraction (%MVIC). The carried load represented a moderate intensity of 75% of the exercise six repetitions maximum (6RM). Electromyography data from the vastus medialis (VM), vastus lateralis (VL), biceps femoris (BF) and gluteus medius (Gmed) on each leg were collected during the procedure. The groups selected were participants with H/Q GREATER-THAN OR EQUAL TO 0.5, HQ < 0.5, HAB/H GREATER-THAN OR EQUAL TO 1, HAB/H < 1, HAB/Q GREATER-THAN OR EQUAL TO 0.5 and HAB/Q < 0.5.
