Ankle Evertor and Invertor Strength Training
Sponsor: University of Ljubljana
Summary
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a 12-week ankle evertor and invertor strength training program performed on a specially designed device, which allows isolated strengthening of evertor and invertor muscles. Outcome measures included isometric ankle torque, EMG activity of six tibial muscles, muscle coactivation, and kinematic parameters during three walking conditions. This trial was retrospectively registered. The study was conducted in 2017 as part of a doctoral dissertation at the Faculty of Sport, University of Ljubljana, prior to the authors' awareness of prospective registration requirements.
