Objective:
To assess the advantage of using the sEMG signal for establishing the mathematical model of lower limb movement and evaluating the improvement in the jumping ability of basketball players as the ultimate target strength. Also, to evaluate its use it in the training of lower limb strengthening of basketball players.
Methods:
In this study conducted from March 1, 2019 to June 1, 2019, 30 professional male basketball players were selected as the subjects, gait analysis was carried out when they finished the three-step layup in 15 minutes. Acquisition and noise reduction process of the collected sEMG signals were first filtered by band-pass filter to eliminate the noise outside the frequency, then suppressed by the spectral interpolation method, and finally subjected to wavelet transformation.
Results:
The lower limb muscle group was activated once in a cycle. The anterior and posterior thigh muscle groups, and anterior Tibial muscles were activated in the early stage, increased to the maximum value and then decreased gradually; the long and short muscles attached to the fibula were activated in the middle stage, and decreased rapidly.
Conclusions:
The research results of sEMG signal showed that the torque intensity of the front and back thigh muscles is greater than that of other muscle groups. Strengthening the training is helpful to enhance the jumping ability of basketball players.
