Article Abstract

Isokinetic training has been proven to be an effective method in rehabilitative therapy. However, the quantitative relationship between training speed and the biophysical condition of the human body is not well established. To address this, a biceps isokinetic training robot implemented the dual-fatigue speed guidance model that integrated cognitive fatigue perception and physiological fatigue index based on sEMG was proposed. The sEMG signals were transformed from time series to a Markov state transition field (MTF) expressed as a state transition network diagram, from which modularity (MD) was extracted as a physiological fatigue index. MD combined with cognitive perceptions by the Borg RPE scale, formed a dual-fatigue speed guidance model for isokinetic training. After one month of training with nine male participants, the proposed model demonstrated improvements in peak torque, muscle dimensions, and cognitive fatigue compared to constant speed training, with a significant absolute peak torque increase (P = 0.0427). The proposed method enables personalized configuration of sports rehabilitation and enhancement, and it can be expected to apply in clinical precision therapy with more participants.

Background: Resistance training plays a crucial role in musculoskeletal rehabilitation and athletic performance. Traditional resistance training often underloads the eccentric phase, as muscles generate more force while lengthening. Isokinetic and iso-inertial exercises have been used to overcome this limitation, with both showing greater muscle activity compared to traditional methods, potentially leading to enhanced strength and hypertrophy.

Introduction: Deficits in lower-limb muscle strength and altered gait mechanics are common after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL). While isokinetic strength testing is widely accepted in return-to-sport assessment, the role of plantar pressure analysis in detecting compensatory gait strategies remains underexplored.

Methods: This study included 10 male patients (30.

Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a common musculoskeletal condition that significantly impacts physical function and quality of life. This review evaluates the role of isokinetic knee strengthening exercises in the management of PFPS, highlighting key findings from recent studies. Isokinetic strengthening, particularly focused on eccentric quadriceps contractions, has shown significant improvements in pain reduction, functional performance, and quadriceps strength.

Background: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is associated with decreased quadriceps strength and decreased activation of central motor cortex. It is necessary to investigate intervention strategies that combine central and peripheral treatments.

Objective: To assess the effectiveness of high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in conjunction with quadriceps strength training for 12 weeks in the treatment of KOA.

Aim: To evaluate the effects of isokinetic hamstring and quadriceps muscle (IHGM)-strengthening and home exercises on balance, proprioception, fear of falling (FoF), kinesiophobia, and quality of life in persons with multiple sclerosis (PwMS).

Methods: The peak torque/body mass of the IHGMs, the absolute angular error (AAE) and mean AAE of the less and more affected legs, and the scores of the Dynamic Gait Index, 10-meter walk test, Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Modified Falls Efficacy Scale, Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life-54 (MSQoL-54), Visual Analog Scale, and Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia-17 (TSK-17) were evaluated before and after the training programs.

Results: Isokinetic exercises resulted in significantly higher improvements in the BBS ( = 0.
