Increased trunk muscle activity from added breast mass can cause changes in posture leading to back pain. Motion capture provided feedback of the postural plumbline while EMG sensors measured back muscle demand as breast mass was increased using simulated breast mass @wiseconf
Another great Twitter poster commencing...
Fortunate to be included in this amazing conference to present my Masters research at @wiseconf “Does increased simulated breast mass change posterior trunk muscular activity?” #redressingthebalance

Key solutions: a lighter weight implant should be considered for breast augmentation to minimise the increases in muscle activity required to maintain correct posture which a larger sample size could provide @wiseconf #redressingthebalance

A great idea for future research, thank you for sharing your work with us Kiera, through 3 great tweets!
Replying to @BorthwickKiera
Development of population-specific training for tackling and breakfalls would help improve the safety of this women’s rugby-7s cohort. Emphasis on player-player contact needs to continue in all position groups @wiseconf #redressingthebalance
