Abstract :
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of different types of augmented feedback, based on movement analysis, on squatting performance. Eight healthy volunteers performed three double leg squatting tests with and without feedback. Initial results from this pilot study showed that kinetic squatting strategies could be altered by kinetic more than by kinematic feedback.
