Ballistic strength training in adults with cerebral palsy may increase rate of force development in plantar fexors, but transition to walking remains unclear: a case series
Gjesdal, Beate Eltarvåg; Mæland, Silje; Bogen, Bård Erik; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes; Nesse, Vilde Cathrine; Torberntsson, Silje Marie Rydningen; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Persons with cerebral palsy (CP) walk with reduced ankle plantar flexor power compared to typically developing. In this study, we investigated whether a ballistic strength-training programme targeting ankle ... -
Kinetic relationships between ankle plantar flexor and hip flexor power during gait in mildly affected adults with spastic hemiplegic and diplegic cerebral palsy - A case series study based on a ballistic strength training rehabilitation program
Torberntsson, Silje Marie Rydningen (Master thesis, 2020-06-12)Background: In normal gait, the ankle plantar flexors provide most propulsive energy during push-off, with smaller contribution of hip flexors. However, the interplay between these two joints remains unclear in spastic ...
