Lower Limb Muscle Activity With "BOBO"

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Healthy Volunteers
• Interventions: Device: BOBO

• Registration Number: NCT02765438
• Lead Sponsor: Hadassah Medical Organization

Brief Summary

Balance disorders are sometimes treated with exercises performed on unbalanced surfaces. The "BOBO" system allows connection of a standing platform attached to any of these surfaces, to a screen, where the user can control games with his or her body movements. In this study, the lower limb muscle activity of healthy individuals will be monitored during different games in order to assert the the ability of each game in strengthening certain muscle groups.

Detailed Description

Healthy subject will fill out a demographic questionnaire following the exercise they will fill out a subjective questionnaire for assessment of the exercise. Each subject will play 4 games using the "BOBO" while surface electrodes are placed on the gluteus max/medius, quadriceps, hamstring, peroneal ,tibialis anterior, gastrocnemius.
