Table 1.

Investigated muscles and locations of EMG sensor placement.

Muscle Location
Ankle dorsiflexor:
tibialis anterior (TA)
at 1/3 on the line between the tip of the fibula and the tip of the medial malleolus.
Ankle plantarflexor:
medial gastrocnemius (MG)
on the most prominent bulge of the muscle.
Knee extensor:
rectus femoris (RF)
halfway between the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) and the superior boarder of the patella.
Knee flexor:
semitendinosus (ST)
halfway between the ischial tuberosity and the medial epicondyle of the tibia.
Hip flexor:
iliopsoas (IL)
at 3–5 cm distal from the ASIS [27].
Hip extensor:
gluteus maximus (GMax)
halfway between the sacral vertebrae and the greater trochanter.
Hip abductor:
gluteus medius (GMed)
halfway between the iliac crest to the greater trochanter.
Hip adductor:
adductor maximus (AM)
halfway between the pubic tubercle and the medial femoral epicondyle [28].
