Manny Moore ATC
A weight-training/rehabilitation device that produces a movement, at a constant velocity. Keeps the speed of movement of the muscles being exercised constant, irrespective of the force being applied. Enables a well-motivated individual to contract the muscles at maximum force at all points in the range of motion.
Isokinetic machines help to develop uniform strengthening of active muscles, improving muscle strength, endurance, cardiovascular fitness through concentric/ecccentric contractions. Mimics functional speeds during activity & helps reduce functional impairment.
Measures ROM and progress objectively which aims to restores optimal function after injury or surgery. Uses Biodex software (Humac Norm) Windows Based OS
Research evidence shows increase in strength Bone mineral Density Range of Motion Functional performance & helps prevents re-injury Safe because resistance is equal to force applied
