Electromyographic Activity of the Upper Limb Muscle during Specific Salat’s Position and Exercise
This study investigated the muscle activity of the neck extensors (NE), sternocleidomastoideus (SCM) and biceps brachii (BB) muscles in healthy subjects during salat and specified exercises using surface electromyography (EMG). A group of undergraduates aged between 19 to 25 years voluntar...

description |
This study investigated the muscle activity of the
neck extensors (NE), sternocleidomastoideus (SCM) and biceps
brachii (BB) muscles in healthy subjects during salat and
specified exercises using surface electromyography (EMG). A
group of undergraduates aged between 19 to 25 years
voluntarily participated in this study. For the assessment of the
NE and SCM, the subjects were asked to perform salat (salam’s
position) and exercise [neck rotation exercise (NRE)]. Subjects
were asked to perform takbir’s position and biceps dumbbell
curl (BDC) to access BB. The EMG and the motion signals of
the muscles were recorded. The findings indicate that there
were contractions of the muscles during the salat and exercise
with difference EMG level. For NE and SCM, Wilcoxon’s Rank
Sum Test showed a statistically no significant difference
between salat and exercise for NE (p = 0.482) and SCM
(p=0.161). For the BB, Wilcoxon’s Rank Sum Test showed a
statistically significant difference between salat and exercise
(p<0.05) with differences 18.48% MVC. However, BB showed
the EMG level with mild contraction. Therefore, salat may be
useful in warm up exercise or in rehabilitation programs. This
pilot study can be as initial research about other biomechanical
response of human muscle with other position in salat. |
