Research Abstract |
This study aimed to examine the applicability of body mass-based exercises as measures for improving muscle strength, being specific to an individual life style. The findings obtained here indicated that the muscular activity levels of agonists in the body mass-based exercises prescribed in this study were higher than those in the activities of daily living, and so the exercises would be useful as measures for maintaining and increasing muscle strength, In addition, the muscular activity levels of agonists in the body mass-based exercises for lower extremity were exponentially associated with muscle strength relative to body mass, suggesting that when body mass-based exercises is adopted as a muscle strength training, the magnitude of the strength improvement will be influenced by the initial level of muscle strength relative to body mass in the practitioner.
