2020年7月14日 · The Vastus Medialis Obliquus (VMO) Patellofemoral pathology is a fairly common condition observed in the training room, clinical setting, and athletic performance enhancement environment.

2015年10月23日 · During this attempt to isolate VMO activity, some designated exercises executed include but are not limited to the following: • Quad sets • Terminal open chain knee extension exercises • Straight leg raises (SLR) with external rotation of the lower extremity

The VMO had the least activation during SLR and the most in D 2 EX, but the VL had the most activity during SLR. The VMO/VL ratio values in PNF patterns were significantly more than SLR and the highest VMO/VL ratio value (0.96) was found during D 2 EX.

2023年1月9日 · This blog post covers 12 best VMO Exercises that will help strengthen your knee. The Vastus Medialis Oblique (or VMO for short) is a muscle which is involved with extension of the knee, knee stability and optimal tracking of the patella (knee cap).

To examine what changes are caused in the activity of the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) and vastus lateralis (VL) at the time of sling-based exercises in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) and compare the muscular ...

The vastus medialis (VM) is located at the medial aspect of this muscle group and has been reported to consist of two separate components, the proximal vastus medialis longus (VML) and the distal vastus medialis obliquus (VMO) (4). The neuroanatomy of the quadriceps muscle complex reveals an innervation from the femoral nerve.

2018年10月1日 · Based on the high prevalence of patellofemoral pain syndrome, quadriceps-strengthening exercises with a straight-leg-raising (SLR) maneuver to address the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) muscle seem necessary to activate and strengthen the patellofemoral-stabilizing muscles (O'sullivan and Popelas, 2005). Exercise therapy is a critical and ...
