Patients with knee OA showed decreased stride time compared ... reported a non-significant difference in swing flexion ROM angle, [2] though the magnitude of the difference appears similar to ...

The subjects squatted down to a 90 degree knee flexion angle. A scale from 0 to 2, where 0 equals “good performance” and 2 “poor performance”, was used. Frontal plane knee angles were calculated for ...

Flexion makes the joint angle smaller, bringing two body parts ... The exceptions to that rule are exercises that involve bending the knee (e.g., hamstring curl). For those, default to rule ...

According to these ACL loading mechanisms, a small knee flexion angle, a strong quadriceps muscle contraction or a great posterior ground reaction force can increase ACL loading. The literature also ...
