Comparative analysis of electromyography activities of trunk and hip muscles between strengthening and stabilisation exercise modalities in females

The prevalence of Low Back Pain (LBP) among women is alarmingly high due to the hormonal and reproductive factors such as irregular or prolonged menstrual cycle and hysterectomy. Physical therapists use a variety of exercises when treating patients with LBP. Hence, appropriate selection and designat...

520 |a The prevalence of Low Back Pain (LBP) among women is alarmingly high due to the hormonal and reproductive factors such as irregular or prolonged menstrual cycle and hysterectomy. Physical therapists use a variety of exercises when treating patients with LBP. Hence, appropriate selection and designation of a training programme capable of stimulating the trunk and hip muscles would be beneficial in both rehabilitation and prevention of LBP. The current study compared the effectiveness of Strengthening Training Programme (STIP) with Stabilisation Training Programme (SBTP) intended to ascertain the most effective programme in stimulating the trunk and hip muscles. A total of 50 healthy females with normal BMI and ages ranging from 19 to 24 years were randomly allotted to STIP and SBTP. The participants underwent five different sets of exercise modalities for each programme three times a week for five weeks. Electromyography (EMG) data were collected from five muscles of Rectus Abdominis, External Oblique, Multifidus, Gluteus Maximus, and Gluteus Medius. The readings from the EMG were compared at the initial phase and after the interventions using t-test. Both training programmes showed significantly increase in all of the muscle activities post-intervention. A statistically significant difference of post-intervention muscle activations between the two training programmes was also obtained (p < 0.05). The SBTP intervention was found to be more efficient in stimulating the back muscles as opposed to STTP. Therefore, stabilisation training programme could be a practical measure for prevention and rehabilitation of LBP among females.
