Postural sway and electromyography (EMG) muscle activation of the lower body on surfaces with varying stability

The purpose of this study was to quantify muscle activation and body sway on a series of unstable surfaces. Surface electrodes were used to obtain muscle activation data from the tibialis anterior, gastrocnemius, gluteus medius, and gluteus maximus while body sway data (mean amplitude of A-P Sway, m...
