Abstract

This study investigated the effects of various abdominal drawing-in methods (ADIMs) on the activation of abdominal muscles in healthy adults. 54 subjects were equally divided into three groups: an ADIM and pressure biofeedback group, a prone bridge exercise with a sling group, and prone bridge exercise with a sling and vibration stimulation group. Changes in the activity levels of the right internal oblique abdominal, external oblique abdominal, and rectus abdominis muscles were measured simultaneously. Upon completion of exercise, abdominal muscle activity was measured using the same method that was used prior to exercise. The activity of the internal oblique increased significantly withbridging exercise using a sling and vibration stimulation within the group and in the group that performed bridging exercise using a sling and vibration stimulation when compared with that of the group performing prone bridge exercise using a sling. Based on the above results, prone bridge exercise using a sling with vibration stimulation is likely to be an effective ADIM for enhancement of internal oblique abdominal muscle function.
