Coactivation of the Pelvic Floor and Gluteus Medius Muscles While Walking and Running in Female Runners

(1) Background: Pelvic-floor-muscle (PFM) activation acts synergistically with multiple muscles while performing functional actions in humans. The purpose of this study was to characterize the activity of the PFMs and gluteus medius (GM) while walking and running in physically active nulliparous fem...

The purpose of this study was to characterize the activity of the PFMs and gluteus medius (GM) while walking and running in physically active nulliparous females. (2) Methods: The peak and average amplitude of maximal voluntary contractions (MVCs) during 60 s of walking (5 and 7 km/h) and running (9 and 11 km/h) were measured with electromyography of the GM and PFMs in 10 healthy female runners. (3) Results: The activation of both muscles increased (p < 0.001) while walking and running. The MVC of the GM was reached when walking and tripled when running, while the PFMs were activated at half their MVC when running. The global ratio of the GM (75.3%) was predominant over that of the PFMs (24.6%) while static and walking. The ratio reached 9/1 (GM/PFM) while running. (4) Conclusion: The GM and PFMs were active while walking and running. The GM's MVC tripled at high speeds, while the PFMs reached only half of their maximum contraction.This research project with the acronym FRIU was financed with funds from the VIII Research Call of the University Camilo José Cela.Peer reviewedMultidisciplinary Digital Publishing InstituteUniversidad Camilo José CelaRodríguez-López, Elena Sonsoles [0000-0003-4289-9299]Ojedo-Martín, Cristina [0000-0003-3697-7051]Benito de Pedro, María [0000-0002-3592-0056]Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas [https://ror.org/02gfc7t72]202420242024info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Publisher's versioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10261/360023https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85187516633reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
