Does leg predomination affect measuring vasti muscle onsets during single leg squatting? A reliability study
2017, Journal of Bodywork and Movement TherapiesCitation Excerpt :In terms of vasti muscle onsets, and in a separate study, it was revealed the high intratester reliability for the determination of VMO and VL EMG onsets during stair stepping in asymptomatic subjects (Cowan et al., 2000). Although the reliability test for VMO and VL onset measurements during stair stepping task was shown to be high in the Cowan's study (2000), it might be necessary to find whether the inherent properties of both right and left legs influences the reliability of these measurements during various functional activities. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to examine the effect of leg predomination on reliability testing of the VMO-VL onset measurements during single leg squatting in healthy subjects.
