Electromyographic Assessment during Isokinetic Exercise in Women 1, 2, 3.

Abstract

Electromyographic (EMG) recordings were made during the assessment of arm strength and endurance of an isokinetic exercise in 25 high school women participating in a study designed to evaluate the response of young women to a male military training program. Force and EMG records were obtained during maximum voluntary contractions at isokinetic speeds of 5 and 15 RPM; and during a 30 sec isokinetic endurance trial at 15 RPM. The results indicated that, regardless of the type of training, army strength and endurance improved. (Author)
