Abstract
Objective: To characterize the muscle activity profile in university students from the city of Santiago de Chile.Material and methods: The profile of muscle activity in certain key muscles in the lower limb was measured, using surface electromyography, in male students of the kinesiology career at the Universidad De Las Americas aged 20 to 24 years. The SENIAM standard was used for the positioning of the electrodes, where the signal was analyzed and processed using MATLAB software, with signal filtering using ICA.Results: The results indicate that the muscle activity profile does not differ from the literature, except for the biceps femoris muscle, which presents two muscle activations during the gait cycle, one between 40 to 60% and another at 90% at 10% of the cycle.Discussion and Conclusion: Further studies with a larger number of participants are suggested to extrapolate the data to the total population in our country.
