Fig. 8

Average muscle activation levels for longissimus and iliocostalis at different flexion angles. Upper row shows flexion with stretched arms (SA) and lower row shows trunk flexion only (TF). Horizontal lines indicate significant differences (p < 0.05) between the device conditions below the end point of the lines. *For this [muscle / SA or TF] condition pairwise comparisons were performed on averages over flexion angles (see Table 2) as no interactions between device condition and trunk inclination were found
