Effects Of Underwater Treadmill Exercise On Mobility Of People With Knee Osteoarthritis, Jaimie Roper
Effects Of Underwater Treadmill Exercise On Mobility Of People With Knee Osteoarthritis, Jaimie Roper
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Gait, pain, and self-efficacy alterations in osteoarthritis (OA) patients may be precursors for pathological alterations and are important variables to examine in an aquatic therapy study aimed at improving mobility. A greater understanding of these alterations will be useful for the treatment of OA and the prevention of OA progression. The purpose of this thesis was twofold: to review the effects of certain land and aquatic therapies on gait kinematics and mobility of people with osteoarthritis, and to examine the effects of short-term aquatic treadmill exercise on gait kinematics, perception of pain, and mobility in OA patients. A direct comparison …
The Effect Of Static Stretching And Order Of Warm-Up On The Isokinetic Peak Torque Of The Knee Extensors, Eric J. Sobolewski
The Effect Of Static Stretching And Order Of Warm-Up On The Isokinetic Peak Torque Of The Knee Extensors, Eric J. Sobolewski
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The purposes of these studies were to determine if an acute static stretch influenced isokinetic peak torque (IPT), and to examine if the order in which the warm up routine was performed affected peak knee extension torque. Twenty trained college male students performed maximal isokinetic knee extensions under four conditions: a control consisting of no stretching, a stretch only trial, jog then stretch, and stretch then jog conditions. Each stretch was held for a total volume of 360 s. Measurements were taken on a Biodex System 3 isokinetic dynamometer at speeds of 60º s-1 and 300º s-1. …
The Effects Of Aquatic Exercise On Physiological And Biomechanical Responses, Matthew M. Denning
The Effects Of Aquatic Exercise On Physiological And Biomechanical Responses, Matthew M. Denning
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Due to recent advances in aquatic research, technology, and facilities, many modes of aquatic therapy now exist. These aquatic modes assist individuals (e.g., osteoarthritis patients) in the performance of activities that may be too difficult to complete on land. However, the biomechanical requirements of each aquatic therapy mode may elicit different physiological and functional responses. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis was to: (a) provide a review of the physiological and biomechanical differences between aquatic and land based exercises, and (b) examine the acute effects of underwater and land treadmill exercise on oxygen consumption (VO2), rating of perceived …
The Effects Of A Four Week Single-Leg Balance Training Program On Balance Error Scoring System Scores Of The Trained And Untrained Leg, Roger J. Davies
The Effects Of A Four Week Single-Leg Balance Training Program On Balance Error Scoring System Scores Of The Trained And Untrained Leg, Roger J. Davies
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a 4-week single-leg stance balance training program on balance error scoring system scores of the trained and untrained leg and to determine any differences between genders for balance performance and cross education. Participants (N = 35) between the ages of 18 - 31 from Utah State University were tested three times over a 4-week period and those in the training group trained for a total of 22 minutes over that same time. Results showed balance improved for the trained leg and the untrained leg as well (p = …
