| Abstract | The support scale at ring height, the swallow, is a difficult strength element, usually performed in gymnastics. Coaches try to simulate the swallow position during training to strengthen muscles, specifically in the position used for competition. However, the real effect of this position's simulation on muscle force and coordination and consequently on the muscle activity has not been determined. The purpose of the study was to compare muscle activity and coordination during a swallow performed on the rings, using a counterweight and during 2 training exercises using dumbbells or barbells, respectively. Six top-level gymnasts participated in the study. Electromyograms from the biceps brachii, triceps brachii, deltoideus (clavicular part), pectoralis major, serratus anterior, infraspinatus, trapezius (middle part), and latissimus dorsi in the right shoulder were collected during the 4 exercises and analyzed using root mean square (RMS) and mean power frequency (MPF). The RMS were normalized to the maximal voluntary contraction, and a co-activation index was also determined between biceps and triceps brachii. Our results show specific shoulder muscle coordination for each exercise. As compared with the swallow on the rings, the pectoralis major participates less in shoulder flexion during the counterweight exercise, whereas the deltoideus is more activated during the dumbbells exercise (p < 0.05). The barbell exercise reduces the participation of the serratus anterior in stabilizing the scapula (p < 0.05). Training exercises must therefore be chosen with knowledge of the specific muscle coordination induced by each. The counterweight exercise preserves the pectoralis major. The barbell exercise reduces participation of the serratus anterior. The dumbbells exercise may be useful to prepare the rotator cuff muscles carefully for use. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
