Learn how to perform isometric quadriceps training using the K-Myo — a great example of muscle monitoring during post-ACL recovery.
The K-Myo surface EMG sensor allows you to visualize muscle activation in real time. In this tutorial, Maxime demonstrates how to train the quadriceps isometrically, ensuring proper sensor placement, calibration, and analysis to achieve accurate and reproducible results.
In this tutorial:
- Identify anatomical landmarks and correctly place the K-Myo on the vastus internus
- Select and set up repetition training
- Adjust settings and perform calibration
- Execute the training session
- Analyse and compare the training report
In the video, Maxime also performs a second training session where the patient intentionally compensates — allowing you to see how muscle activation data changes in real time.
