Objective: To determine if the combined isometric contractions of knee extension/hip adduction and knee extension/hip abduction will elicit a different quadriceps and gluteus medius electromyographic ...

including one hip-adduction exercise, on eccentric and isometric hip-adduction strength, using elastic bands as external load. Methods Thirty-four healthy, sub-elite soccer players, mean (±SD) age of ...

OBJECTIVE: the purpose of this study was to compare vastus medialis obliquus (VMO) and vastus lateralis (VL) activity while performing a mini-squat with and without isometric hip adduction.

After the inflammatory phase, progressive (isometric, concentric, then eccentric), specific strengthening of the hip adductor muscle group was combined with ongoing passive stretching to complete ...
