Motion of the ankle is essential for many yoga poses. An understanding of range of ankle motion during typical yoga poses may help the clinician to understand expected outcomes of patients when returning from ankle surgery or injury to yoga.
The biomechanics of twenty healthy active yogis were collected during seven yoga poses that are common within their practices. Motion capture and force plates were used to assess the range of motion and joint moments of the ankle for each pose.
All poses resulted in plantarflexion and external rotation moments at the ankle joints. Joint loading was highest in single leg poses. The arc of motion used by the study participants in the poses was 29° of sagittal motion, 20° of frontal motion and 35° of transverse motion.
Ankle motion was evaluated when healthy yogis perform standard poses. These results may help in discussion with patients regarding expected outcomes after ankle injury or surgery.
脚踝的活动对于许多瑜伽姿势至关重要。了解典型瑜伽姿势中脚踝的活动范围,可能有助于临床医生理解患者从脚踝手术或损伤恢复后进行瑜伽练习时的预期效果。
在20名健康的活跃瑜伽练习者进行其练习中常见的七种瑜伽姿势时,收集他们的生物力学数据。使用动作捕捉和测力板评估每个姿势下脚踝的活动范围和关节力矩。
所有姿势均导致踝关节出现跖屈和外旋力矩。单腿姿势下的关节负荷最高。研究参与者在这些姿势中使用的运动弧度为矢状面运动29°、额状面运动20°和横断面运动35°。
对健康瑜伽练习者进行标准姿势时的脚踝活动进行了评估。这些结果可能有助于与患者讨论脚踝损伤或手术后的预期效果。
