It is often considered as a fatigue test because fatigue-related electromyographic (EMG) parameters change throughout the test [2]; however, only recently it has been confirmed that this test induces a decrease of trunk extensor force during a maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) [3], which best characterises muscle fatigue. The main aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between the decrease in MVC torque of the trunk extensors induced by the Sorensen test and the changes in fatigue-related EMG. | Keywords: | fatigue; muscle; endurance; low back pain; electromyography | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/22869 | Category: | C2 | Type: | Conference Material |
