Comparison of lower limb muscle activities during eccentric lunge walking in three different step lengths.
PURPOSE Eccentric lunge walking (ELW), which requires body weight to be supported by the stepping leg for ~ 3 s while its knee is flexed to ~ 90º (eccentric phase), has been shown to improve physical function. However, the influence of step length on lower-limb muscle activities during ELW remains unclear. We hypothesi...
