Abstract

The best of our knowledge no study in the literature has compared the bilateral electromyographic activation of the multifidus and longissimus dorsi muscles between the squat and hip thrust exercise. The aim of the present study was to compare the electromyographic activation by bilateral measurement of the multifidus and longissimus dorsi muscles between the squat and hip thrust exercise in 9 university bodybuilding competitors who were using both exercises in their training routine. The results show that both muscles increased electromyography activity in the ascending phase. Regarding the exercise effect, the multifidus show greater activation in pelvic elevation (80.9 ± 21.4 x 58.5 ± 17.7 for the peak, p < 0.05, and 50.1 ± 17.6 x 34.5 ± 12.1 for the mean, p < 0.05). There was no difference between the exercises for the longuissimus. We conclude that the multifidus muscles are more requested in the hip thrust exercise and both show greater activation in the ascending phase.
