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

2020年7月14日 · The vastus medialis (VM) is located at the medial aspect of the 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) (Figure 6).

The lower VMO/VL ratio value during SLR compared to PNF patterns ratios can be attributed to lower VMO activity and/or the higher VL activity which found in our study. In PFPS group the VMO/VL ratio values in PNF patterns (with and without load) were near to the ideal 1:1 ratio and the highest VMO/VL ratio value (0.96) was found during D 2 EX 7) .

2023年1月9日 · The Vastus Medialis Oblique (or VMO short) is an important muscle of the knee which is involved with stability, strength and control. This blog post contains 12 different VMO Exercises that will help strengthen your knee.

2021年7月30日 · This study aimed to investigate the electromyography (EMG) activity of vastus medialis obliquus (VMO), vastus lateralis (VL) and VMO/VL ratio during PNF in individuals with and without PFPS. Methods: 26 persons with PFPS and 26 healthy subjects participated to study.

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 activations in patients with PFPS among the sling-based exercises.

Active SLR (VMO) ("Straight leg raise" Core/vastus medialis oblique strengthening, reclined) Lie on your back with your affected leg straight and the other leg bent for stability. Turn the affected leg out, tighten the thigh muscles to fully straighten the knee and lift the leg off the bed, keeping the knee completely straight.

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 ...
