Abstrakt: The standing lunge is an activity commonly used to quantify in-vivo knee kinematics with fluoroscopy. The ability to perform the standing lunge varies between subjects and can necessitate movement accommodations to successfully complete the desired range of motion. We proposed a supine leg press as an alternative to the standing lunge that aimed to provide a similar evaluation of knee motion while increasing the measured range of motion. Tibiofemoral kinematics of 53 non-symptomatic adults (27 men, 26 women, 50.8 ± 7.0 yrs.) were calculated from the tracked high-speed stereo radiography (HSSR) images for supine leg press and standing lunge using CT-segmented bony geometries of the right lower limb. The supine leg press proved to be a useful alternative to the standing lunge while providing 46.2° greater range of motion in knee flexion. The difference in angle-matched kinematics across a 100° flexion range between the leg press and lunge was 0.70° in varus-valgus rotation, 1.5° in internal-external rotation, 1.0 mm in medial-lateral translation, 2.3 mm in anterior-posterior translation, and 0.46 mm in superior-inferior translation for men. The angle-matched difference for women across 100° was 0.58° in varus-valgus rotation, 2.4° internal-external rotation, 0.70 mm medial-lateral translation, 2.1 mm anterior-posterior translation, and 0.78 mm superior-inferior translation. The similar kinematics, while having a greater range of motion, and control of the applied load makes the supine leg press an alternative for quantifying in-vivo knee kinematics.
