Abstract:
Trunk positioning and unexpected perturbations are high-risk conditions at the time of anterior cruciate ligament injury. We tested the influence of trunk position on feedforward and feedback control during unexpected perturbations while performing a novel single-limb squatting task. We also assessed the degree that feedforward control was predictive of feedback responses. Soleus long-latency reflexes increased more than 100% from feedforward muscle activity regardless of trunk condition. Feedfor-ward muscle activity differentially predicted long-latency reflex responses depending on the muscle (R2: 0.47–0.97). These findings support the concept that trunk positioning influences motor control responses to perturbation and that feedback responses may be invariant to the feedforward control strategy.
