摘要:The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of unilateral hip abductor fatigue on body sway in ipsilateral and contralateral single legged stance. Acute effects repeated measurements design. Thirteen recreationally active middle aged subjects participated in the study. All subjects performed two 30s repetitions of unilateral stance on each leg. The first measurement was obtained at baseline, the second followed a control protocol of active hip abduction in supine position without additional resistance and the third measurement was conducted as aforementioned second protocol, only against elastic resistance. The center of pressure (CoP) movement characteristics during single-leg quiet stance (i.e. body sway) were analyzed by calculating the average velocity of the CoP movement and direction specific (medial-lateral and anterior-posterior) average velocity, amplitude and frequency of the CoP mo¬ve¬ment. The results of this study indicate that fatigue significantly affected body sway in both single leg stances (p
