Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| biomechanical demands of squat by recording kinetic (forces), kinematic (joint angles), length and activity of muscle (EMG) and neuro-physiological control (postural control). Cellular biochemical response to activity will be assessed by non invasive methods to evaluate anti oxidant activity in body fluids like sweat and urinary cartilage C talopeptide type II collagen.Timepoint: baseline, 4 weeks, 8 weeks , 12 weeks, 12 months | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| participants will undergo prescreening using American College of Sports Medicine ACSM risk factor profile, Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PARQ), Health History Questionnaire (HHQ), International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Version (IPAQ), Physiological Stress Scale, Western Ontario Mac Master University Questionnaire (WOMAC )/WOMAC CRD Pune version. Previous squatting exposure will be quantified using MGM Ground Level Activity Exposure questionnaire(MGMGLAE)Timepoint: baseline, 4 weeks, 8 weeks , 12 weeks, 12 months | — |
