The relative activation of pelvic floor muscles during selected yoga poses
CONCLUSION: LA activation during locust was very high and sufficient for strength gains. LA activation during side angle, front plank, and side plank would be best for improving endurance and/or neuromuscular control of the PFM. Findings from this study showed differing levels of PFM activation across yoga poses that may benefit patients with pathology associated with PFM dysfunction.PMID:37247569 | DOI:10.1016/j.ctcp.2023.101768 (Source: Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice)
