Overview
The paper is about kinesiology analysis of three different styles of push-up by scanning electric activity of selected muscles by surface electromyography. This exercise was performed in three different positions in shoulder girdle. Muscle electric potentials were scanned and synchronized with videocamera from frontal position during those exercises. The aim of this study is to describe differences in muscle activity during performed mentioned movements. The results show the difference in coordination in these three modifications of push up.
Key words:
push-up, kinesiology analysis, shoulder girdle, surface electromyography
