Correction: Nakai, Y.; Takeshita, Y. Effects of a Pneumatic External Abdominal Pressure Assist Belt on Trunk and Lower Limb Muscle Activity and Joint Kinematics During Lifting Tasks. Appl. Sci. 2025, 15, 10897
Key Points
Muscle activity is affected by the use of a pneumatic pressure assist belt during lifting tasks, improving performance overall.
Key evidence shows significant changes in both trunk and lower limb muscle activity, enhancing safety during lifting actions.
Observational analysis of joint kinematics was conducted during lifting with and without the assist belt, revealing notable differences.
This correction may enable better ergonomic solutions in lifting tasks, highlighting the importance of external support in reducing strain.
