Official Title: Does a Hip Muscle Activation Home Exercise Program Change Patient Performance on the Forward Step-Down Test? A Single-Arm Clinical Trail

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine if activation training of the hip musculature affects muscle activation and frontal plane mechanics in healthy individuals.Specific Aim 1: Determine whether performance on the forward step-down test (FSDT) changes after an eight-week home exercise program (HEP) focused on hip musculature activation in healthy individuals.Specific Aim 2: Determine whether surface electromyography (sEMG) hip musculature changes following an eight-week HEP focused on hip musculature…
