Abstract
- The purpose of this study was to investigate effects of abdominal drawing-in maneuver (ADIM) on the muscular activity of the trunk and the lower limbs during stair ascent. The subjects were healthy 15 men and 8 women who were in their 20s. After maintaining ADIM by using a pressure biofeedback unit for 15 min, the subjects performed stair ascent and their muscular activity of the right trunk and the legs was measured to determine difference between when the subjects maintained ADIM and did not. The activities of the sternocleidomastoid, the splenius capitis, the rectus abdominis (ABD), the external abdominal oblique (EO), the transverse abdominis (TRA), the elector spinae (ES), the vastus medialis (VM), and the vastus lateralis (VL) were measured using surface electromyogram (TM DTS). The collected data were statistically processed by the SPSS ver. 18.0 and analyzed with a paired t-test. The muscular activities of the TRA, VM, and VL significantly increased (P
