Journal Article
How do leg press exercises comply with limited weight bearing?
2016
Overview
To investigate foot loadings in different leg press settings with respect to a possible graduation of weight bearing (WB).
Case series.
Assessing plantar force values by means of dynamic pedobarography taken place in orthopaedic departments' rehab center.
15 healthy students (9 men and 6 women, age 23 ± 2, weight 75 ± 6 kg) were recruited as participants from the medical faculty.
Peak force values from normal gait (referred to as 100%) and single and double leg presses (SLP, DLP) with resistances of 10 kg, 20 kg and 40 kg, obtained with pedobarographic insoles.
Performing DLP produced foot loadings (N) of 37 ± 15 with 10 kg, 91 ± 29 with 20 kg and 203 ± 27 with 40 kg, equal to 5%, 12% and 26% of full WB. SLP result in force values of 195 ± 32 with 10 kg, 308 ± 34 with 20 kg and 516 ± 45 with 40 kg, corresponding to 25%, 40% and 67% baseline.
Leg press exercises can be performed in accordance with a given limitation of foot loading. Above mentioned conditions allow a graduation from 5% to 67% of full WB.
•Leg presses can be performed to modified weight bearing conditions.•Leg press settings allow an adjustment from 5% to 67% of full weight bearing.•Pedobarography seems a suitable method to monitor foot loads during leg presses at 40 kg but is less valid at lower loads.
