| Résumé | Aim. -To verify the effects of the elastic compression on the muscular oscillations in walking and to determine a possible dose-effect response. Synthesis. -Twelve subjects walked 3 times (3 min) at 6 km/h on a treadmill: with compression sleeves applying a pressure level of 15 or 30 mmHg (calf) or without compression sleeves. The muscular oscillations were measured with accelerometers placed on the lateral gastrocnemius muscle. Conclusion. -The muscular oscillations decrease with compression sleeves. This decrease was more pronounced (P < 0.05) with the 30 mmHg (-19.9%) compared with the 15 mmHg (-16.5%) level. (C) 2014 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved. |
