Supine leg press as an alternative to standing lunge in high-speed stereo radiography.

ABSTRACT: The standing lunge is an activity commonly used to quantify in-vivo knee kinematics with fluoroscopy. The ability to perform the standing lunge varies between subjects and can necessitate movement accommodations to successfully complete the desired range of motion. We proposed a supine leg press as an alternative to the standing lunge that aimed to provide a similar evaluation of knee motion while increasing the measured range of motion. Tibiofemoral kinematics of 53 non-symptomatic adults (27 men, 26 women, 50.8 ± 7.0 yrs.) were calculated from the tracked high-speed stereo radiography (HSSR) images for supine leg press and standing lunge using CT-segmented bony geometries of the right lower limb. The supine leg press proved to be a useful alternative to the standing lunge while providing
