Doel De betrokkenheid van supraspinale structuren bij de controle van passieve bewegingen is nog onvoldoende opgehelderd. Eerdere studies leverden elektromyografisch bewijs voor snelheids- en type-afhankelijke veranderingen in spieractiviteit. Op basis van eigenschappen van mechanoreceptoren, leeftijdsgerelateerde …

Purpose To investigate the test-retest reliability and validity of the steep ramp test (SRT), a short and practical maximal exercise test on a cycle ergometer, for assessing CRF in apparently healthy adults aged 25–85 years. Methods To determine test-retest reliability, the reliability group performed …

Laboratory study using a repeated measures design. The aim of this study was to determine if ankle proprioception is targeted in exercises on unstable surfaces. Lateral ankle sprain (LAS) has recurrence rates over 70%, which are believed to be due to a reduced accuracy of proprioceptive signals from …

Optimal postural control is an essential capacity in daily life and can be highly variable. The purpose of this study was to investigate if young people have the ability to choose the optimal postural control strategy according to the postural condition and to investigate if non-specific low back pain …

This research article shows that a high intensity exercise program compared to a low intensity exercise program of the same session duration and frequency, increases insulin sensitivity to a larger extend in healthy subjects. It also shows that the short insulin tolerance test can be used to detect differences …
