📈 Think high EMG = better glute gains? Think again 🧠 This study shows EMG activity doesn’t always match force output —more activation doesn’t necessarily mean more strength ⏰ No time to read the full paper? ✅ We broke it down into a 5-minute read physio.network/EMG-study

Poor agreement between EMG based ranking of exercises and gluteal forces ranked exercises. This is *exactly* why we shouldn't use EMG amplitude as our sole/main measure of guaging how effective an exercise is. Great work @TylerCollings3 @MBourne5 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4026…

Replying to @lahti_johan
I think the key is starting with what we care about measuring and how we intend to use that info to inform decisions. If hip mobility (or any construct) is something we deem important—based on performance relevance, injury risk, etc.—then we should aim to measure it directly...

Why 'functional training' is still ill-defined. Look up the history of the word 'upmost'. In 1979 this wasn't a word. It has become one (it gets a gig in most dictionaries) because muppets, who never read, mis-heard utmost and started their own word. 1/n

Exercises targeting the gluteus medius should likely involve direct hip abduction or include a component of having to control and stabilize the pelvis in weight bearing. Shown are a handful of options that can be used for training or rehab purposes. 🧵

Some excellent work on the way from Jinyun Cai. Does targeted muscle strengthening reduce ACL loading during dynamic tasks? ✔8 week training intervention ✔Reactive sidestepping & single-leg landings ✔EMG-informed neuromusculoskeletal modelling ✔Muscles personalized with MRI

🦵 Can targeting specific muscles really help prevent ACL tears? 🤔 While promising, it's no perfect solution—ACL injury prevention is complex! 🍿 Learn ACL injury risk and prevention in our new Masterclass with Dr. @MBourne5 and @TylerCollings3 🔗 physio.network/ACLRisk

Personally I feel this is misleading. The nuance of varying contractions velocities and individual muscle functions, it is not an isotonic contraction after all. I think power, the F-V curve and FVP profile are misused in this sense. Perhaps just me.

Makes sense. Both exercises are within the active-length curve. Torque profile may differ, but total/peak muscle force could be similar. Somehow need to get the mid delt into longer lengths to generate passive force & increase hypertrophy? Nice job @StianLa07849895
Our new study, now in preprint, showed dumbbell and cable lateral raises elicit similar hypertrophy in the middle deltoid in trained men and women over 8 wks. Both modes appear to be viable options. Kudos to @StianLa07849895 for spearheading the project💪 sportrxiv.org/index.php/serv…

Nice. Considering the force-length operating range of an exercise might be useful for hypertrophy. The second part to consider is when long lengths correspond with high external joint torques - otherwise you’re just stretching. Combined active passive = optimal stimulus?
Really enjoyed this paper on the effect of range of motion on hypertrophic responses. Anyone curious to learn about the length-tension properties of individual muscles should give this a read.

Myths of S&C: Part 2 Misunderstanding the force-velocity relationship. Although almost all S&C coaches know Newton's second law (F=ma), our intention tends to be more Aristotelian.

Sounds like the making of a Fad.. Be interesting to see if dyno testing for motivation & buy-in alone is enough to justify time & costs over long term.
Before saying we NEED dynamometers in practice we need to answer: 1. Does strength mediate recovery? aka: if you don't get stronger it is much less likely your pain and function will improve 1/

Myths of S&C Part 1: The Force-Velocity Curve of Exercises Curves like this are taken as gospel, but are complete BS.
