Research Abstract |
This study investigated muscle activity during running in water and treadmill running on dry land(TMR) when exercise intensity was matched using stride frequency(SF) and physiological responses(e. g., heart rate, HR). It was observed that lower extremity muscle activity during running in water was similar(i. e., biceps femoris and tibialis anterior) and lower(i. e., rectus femoris and gastrocnemius) than that of TMR at matched SF. Furthermore, it was suggested that matching HR can be recommended to produce similar magnitude of lower extremity muscle activity during running in water to that of TMR, with the exception of the gastrocnemius.
