Primary | Lumbar segmental rotation | Analyzing sequence of initiation of motion and sequence of segmental contribution in rotation of each vertebra L1, L2, L3, L4, L5 and S1 by using flexion and extension cinematographic recordings in asymptomatic male participants. | 30 minutes | |
Secondary | Lumbar segmental translation | Analyzing intervertebral horizontal and vertical translation of each vertebra L1, L2, L3, L4, L5 and S1 by using flexion and extension cinematographic recordings in asymptomatic male participants. If mean intra-class correlation coefficient is higher than 0.60, sequence of initiation of motion and sequence of segmental contribution of intervertebral horizontal and vertical translation will be analyzed. | 30 minutes |
