To Compare the Effect of Eccentric Exercise Vs Concentric Exercise when Combined with Wobble Board Exercise on Propriception of Knee Joint after Inducing Fatigue in Quadriceps Muscle

Abstract

Background: Proprioception, as the perception of positions and movements of the body segments in relationto each other, without the aid of vision, touch or the organs of equilibrium1,6.Objective: The main objective of this study is to focus on the difference between the effect of eccentricexercise vs concentric exercise when combined with wobble board exercise on proprioception of knee jointafter inducing fatigue in quadriceps muscle.Study Design: Experimental Study.Methods: In this experimental studytotal 40 subjects were selected by convenient sampling and divided intotwo groups. Subjects of both groups were selected according to Inclusion/Exclusion criteria and informedconsent were taken from all subjects and methodological protocol was introduced and applied to subjectsand statistical analysis is done with the help of unpaired-t test.Results: There were significant differences seen in that eccentric and concentric exercises with wobbleboard exercise are very effective in improving proprioception. But eccentric exercise with wobble boardexercise has better effect in improving proprioception.Conclusion: It is concluded that fatigue decreases the proprioception and eccentric exercise with wobbleboard exercise give better result to improve proprioception.
