Abstract

The aim of the study was comparison of kinesiological similarity of running and kick-bike running. Surface EMG method was used to evaluate timing of muscle activation of 7 lower-limb muscles.

Similar mechanism in terms of timing and motor control were identified for lower limb extensors. Kick-bike seems to be efficient tool in teaching partial running skills.
