Hamstring Activity and Lower Extremity Loading in Knee Osteoarthritis: The Effect of Foot Rotation

Hamstring Activity and Lower Extremity Loading in Knee Osteoarthritis: The Effect of Foot Rotation
By:"Scott Kember Lynn"
Published on 2007 by ProQuest

Lastly, since it is apparent that the hamstring may play a role in unloading the diseased knee compartment, the M-L activation ratio was calculated with changes in foot position during lower limb exercise in young healthy subjects to determine if selective activation of the medial or lateral hamstrings was indeed possible. It was discovered that internal foot rotation increases the M-L hamstring activation ratio and external rotation decreases it.
