Summary

An experimental study, which will aim to compare changes of trunk mechanical properties and neuromuscular control following spinal flexion exposure in crane operators and control subjects.

Conditions

  • Occupational Exposure

Interventions

OTHER

Repeated trunk flexion

A 60-min intermittent trunk flexion protocol. Participants will sit on a standard height sit, with their knees bent at approximately 90° with their hands crossed on their chest. They will perform 40 sets of 60 s of maintaining a flexed position, interspersed with 30 s of rest. Participants will achieve the flexed position by tilting the pelvis posteriorly and leaning forward. During rest, participants will sit up straight without leaning on the support.
