Shoulder Girdle in the Regiment of Quadrupedal Locomotion

Overview

Shoulder griddle is a part of human locomotion in the process of postural movement ontogenesis. Its locomotion function is then alternated by the manipulation function and grip realization. The locomotion spectrum during a sport activity allows the shoulder griddle to use the locomotion function. The study brings an example of some muscle involvement during the locomotion realized by the shoulder griddle. These selected muscles are parts of interaction chains or realize the scapula position, which is a decisive fact for central position of shoulder griddle when realizing human locomotion.

Key words:
human locomotion, electromyography, crossed locomotion pattern.
