摘要: Abstract As the prevalence of obesity grows worldwide, it becomes an increasing concern in working populations. Ergonomists are faced with challenge accommodating workplace layouts to include this worker demographic. This study investigated relationship between shoulder and low back isometric joint strengths across body mass index (BMI) groups. Additionally, relationships fat percentage (BF%), absolute strength, strength normalized were examined. Ninety, healthy, age participants performed 11 functional exertions. BMI group influenced as obese 2+ (BMI >35.0) had up 63.1% lower than all other groups (p
