Squat reinforced concrete(RC)shear walls are essential structural elements in low-rise buildings,valued for their high strength and stiffness.However,research on their seismic behavior remains limited,as most studies ...
Background:The training program promoted improvements of jump abilities throughout the musculoskeletal system including bone markers.The aim of this study is to examine both the acute and chronic response of bone mark...
BACKGROUND Total knee arthroplasty(TKA)has been shown to improve quality of life and reduce pain.High-flexion activities such as squatting,kneeling,and floor transfers are mainly listed as demanding tasks.Among them,s...
Purpose Muscle strength and power are important requirements in many sports.The correlation of jumping performance as manifestation of muscle power and squatting one-repetition maximum(1RM)has been shown in several in...
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Tuina(Chinese therapeutic massage)manipulation plus horse-riding squat exercise in treating knee osteoarthritis(KOA)and optimize the combining protocol.Methods Based on a 2×2 fac...
Background: Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is considered one of the most common dysfunctions of the lower extremities. Faulty lower limb mechanics and increased of knee valgus on loaded tasks are believed to play an import...
Purpose Isometric strength training (IST) with rapid non-sustained contraction (RIST) is effective in improving the ability to generate force rapidly.However,the neuromuscular adaptation of IST with sustained contract...
