简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine if an isometric gluteal activation home exercise program (HEP) combined with a movement retraining program utilizing feedback cues produces significant changes in scores on the Forward Step-Down Test (FSDT) in healthy young adults with movement coordination impairments.
Aim 1: To determine if an isometric gluteal activation HEP with a movement retraining program with feedback cues produces significant changes on scores FSDT compared to the gluteal activation HEP alone.
Aim 2: To determine if an isometric gluteal activation HEP followed with a movement retraining program with feedback cues produces significant changes on category FSDT compared to gluteal activation HEP alone.
Aim 3: To determine if an isometric gluteal activation HEP with a movement retraining program with feedback cues produces changes in the peak activation of the gluteus medius (GMed) and gluteus maximus (GMax) during the FSDT compared to the gluteal activation HEP alone.
Aim 4: To determine if an isometric gluteal activation HEP with a movement retraining program with feedback cues produces changes in the mean activation of the GMed and GMax during the FSDT compared to the gluteal activation HEP alone.
Aim 5: To determine if HEP dose has an effect on the FSDT response, as measured by change in score on the FSDT.

入选标准
- •Participants must between the ages of 18 and older, if they were healthy via the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire for Everyone (PAR-Q+), and scored a 2 or higher on the FSDT.
排除标准
- •Participants have any current knee/hip pain, past knee/hip pathology in the past 3 months on their dominant leg or that the participant believes would impact their ability to participate in the study, or any past lower extremity (LE) surgery in their dominant leg that the participant believes would impact their ability to participate in the study, a concussion in the past 3 months, or if they have any vestibular pathology.
结局指标
主要结局

- Mean Maximal Volitional Isometric Contraction (MVIC) on Gluteus Maximus (GMax).(Baseline and after 8-week HEP intervention.)
- Peak Maximal Volitional Isometric Contraction (MVIC) on Gluteus Maximus (GMax).(Baseline and after 8-week HEP intervention.)
- Mean Maximal Volitional Isometric Contraction (MVIC) on Gluteus Medius (GMed).(Baseline and after 8-week HEP intervention.)
- HEP Compliance - Dose Response Relationship with FSDT and MVIC outcomes(After 8-week intervention.)
