Geschlechtsspezifische Unterschiede in der ­posturalen Stabilität? Analyse mit dem Posturomed®

Postural stability is critical for injury prevention and rehabilitation. An advantage in favor of female subjects compared to males could be determined in many studies, whereby the quantification, reliability and validity are limited due to the method. The Posturomed® allows to measure stability in the vertical and horizontal directions. So far, there are no studies that have recorded postural stability with the Posturomed® and examined gender-specific differences.

Differential coordination behaviour between concentric and eccentric contractions – many questions remain unanswered

Concentric and eccentric muscle work is characterized through different biochemical activating cascades. Concentric contraction is characterized by an ATP O2 coupling dependent interaction of the myofibril proteins Aktin and Myosin. In eccentric contraction, according to the Wind­ing-filament hypothesis, a rotation movement around the thin filament is caused which is ATP independent. In addition, the processes of motor anticipation vary greatly between the two. This leads to the aim of the study: What are the differences in concentric versus eccentric muscle work concerning anticipation, perception and execution.
