Muscle Strain
STUDY DESIGN: Descriptive study. OBJECTIVES: To quantify and rank the order of strain (length change in proportion to the resting length) of 3 portions of the pectoralis major (PM) muscle during various exercises. BACKGROUND: A biomechanical foundation on which to base exercise prescriptions for patients after[…][ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
