      To compare the immediate and short-term effects of L4 and L5 Unilateral Posterior Anterior&#xD;
      (UPA) Mobilisations on the lumbar and hamstring range of motion and EMG activity of the&#xD;
      Erector Spinae and Hamstring muscles.&#xD;
&#xD;
      Using a pre-test post-test crossover design subjects lumbar flexion and active knee extension&#xD;
      with be recorded prior to and following unilateral zygapophyseal joint mobilisations.&#xD;
      Measures will be taken immediately after and then 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 and 60 minutes intervals&#xD;
      post intervention. Mobilisation force will be measured via force plates to ensure consistent&#xD;
      mobilisation pressure.&#xD;
&#xD;
      Following data collection statistical analysis will be undertaken to analyse any potential&#xD;
      benefit of lumbar mobilisations to influence the EMG activity of the Erector Spinae and&#xD;
      Hamstrings. Functional assessment of lumbar range of motion and hamstring range of motion to&#xD;
      be conducted and analyse any effect on movement&#xD;

      25-30 participants will be tested in the Olympia Building Biomechanics Laboratory at Teesside&#xD;
      University.&#xD;
&#xD;
      Due to the nature of the cross-over design participants will attend the laboratory twice, one&#xD;
      week apart.&#xD;
&#xD;
      Baseline measurements of Lumbar flexion and hamstring range of motions will be taken.&#xD;
&#xD;
      During lumbar flexion participants will be asked to stand with their arms at their side&#xD;
      (anatomical position) and feet 8cm part. The tester will demonstrate the flexion motion then&#xD;
      request the subject bends forwards are far as is possible, maintaining knee extension. A&#xD;
      previous reliability study (Page 2012) has indicated four lumbar flexion movements&#xD;
      repetitions were required to prevent the effects of passive stiffness improving the range. On&#xD;
      the fourth trial the measurement via the modified schober test. This requires skin markers to&#xD;
      be placed 10cm above and 5cm below the lumbar-sacral junction and the change distance&#xD;
      calculated at end range. This will be conducted by the lead author, Paul Chesterton, a&#xD;
      physiotherapist with appropriate insurance and qualifications.&#xD;
&#xD;
      Hamstring extensibility will be measured via the active knee extension test. Test leg will be&#xD;
      determined by dominant/kicking leg. Subjects will be secured into anterior pelvic tilt via a&#xD;
      belt and asked to extend the knee to maximal length. A purpose made wooden wedge will provide&#xD;
      a right angle surface to ensure the hip is held at 90 degrees. The digital inclinometer will&#xD;
      record the change in degrees of active knee extension post-test. The knee will be extended to&#xD;
      end range, determined by the subject, with the hip, knee and ankle maintained in neutral. The&#xD;
      non-dominant leg will be secured to the bed via a belt.&#xD;
&#xD;
      To record the surface electromyography (SEMG) activity in the muscles of the participants in&#xD;
      this study the Zerowire Cometa system will be used. This system will record the muscle&#xD;
      activity wirelessly. Every electrode unit is equipped with a small unit for signal processing&#xD;
      and transmission to the data receiver. The electrodes are single use disposable,&#xD;
      self-adhesive silver chloride dual snap on electrodes pre-set at a distance of 20mm.&#xD;
&#xD;
      All participants will have the skin prepared prior to the noraxon electrode being placed on&#xD;
      their skin. Skin preparation will consist of shaving the area to remove any hair then wiping&#xD;
      the area with alcohol wipe then the placing noraxon dual electrode in appropriate position in&#xD;
      relation to recommendations by Seniam (2003). The electrodes are placed in line to the&#xD;
      pennant of the muscle.&#xD;
&#xD;
      Electrodes will be attached according to European recommendation (seniam) at the Paraspinal&#xD;
      muscles, and the Biceps Femoris of the dominant leg. A baseline sEMG will then be taken&#xD;
      whilst the participant is at rest for 60seconds. The electrode placement and sEMG recording&#xD;
      will be taken by a qualified laboratory technician employed by Teesside University.&#xD;
&#xD;
      The intervention will consist of unilateral lumbar mobilisations at the L4 and L5 level in a&#xD;
      Posterior Anterior direction. The plinth will rest on force plates to allow the authors to&#xD;
      analyse the force placed through the vertebrae. Grade three mobilisations will be applied for&#xD;
      a one minute period three times at both L4 and L5 level. Each level will be determined by a&#xD;
      passive physiological intervertebral movement. Participants will receive the mobilisations at&#xD;
      L5 first for one minute followed by L4. This is an appropriate dose for mobilisation&#xD;
      application (Maitland, 2013). This process will be carried out three times.&#xD;
&#xD;
      Following either the control or intervention all measure lumbar flexion, hamstring&#xD;
      extensibility and sEMG activity will be recorded immediately, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60 minutes&#xD;
      post application as a single test.&#xD;
&#xD;
      Data analysis will occur using the zerowire cometa system version 1.6. The raw rate will be&#xD;
      smoothed and rectified using a Butterworth algorithm with a high pass filter with a cut of&#xD;
      frequency of 20Hz at order 5 with the data will be rectified using route mean square (RMS)&#xD;
      set at a window of 20ms.&#xD;

To compare the immediate and short-term effects of L4 and L5 Unilateral Posterior Anterior
      (UPA) Mobilisations on the lumbar and hamstring range of motion and EMG activity of the
      Erector Spinae and Hamstring muscles.

      Using a pre-test post-test crossover design subjects lumbar flexion and active knee extension
      with be recorded prior to and following unilateral zygapophyseal joint mobilisations.
      Measures will be taken immediately after and then 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 and 60 minutes intervals
      post intervention. Mobilisation force will be measured via force plates to ensure consistent
      mobilisation pressure.

      Following data collection statistical analysis will be undertaken to analyse any potential
      benefit of lumbar mobilisations to influence the EMG activity of the Erector Spinae and
      Hamstrings. Functional assessment of lumbar range of motion and hamstring range of motion to
      be conducted and analyse any effect on movement
25-30 participants will be tested in the Olympia Building Biomechanics Laboratory at Teesside
      University.

      Due to the nature of the cross-over design participants will attend the laboratory twice, one
      week apart.

      Baseline measurements of Lumbar flexion and hamstring range of motions will be taken.

      During lumbar flexion participants will be asked to stand with their arms at their side
      (anatomical position) and feet 8cm part. The tester will demonstrate the flexion motion then
      request the subject bends forwards are far as is possible, maintaining knee extension. A
      previous reliability study (Page 2012) has indicated four lumbar flexion movements
      repetitions were required to prevent the effects of passive stiffness improving the range. On
      the fourth trial the measurement via the modified schober test. This requires skin markers to
      be placed 10cm above and 5cm below the lumbar-sacral junction and the change distance
      calculated at end range. This will be conducted by the lead author, Paul Chesterton, a
      physiotherapist with appropriate insurance and qualifications.

      Hamstring extensibility will be measured via the active knee extension test. Test leg will be
      determined by dominant/kicking leg. Subjects will be secured into anterior pelvic tilt via a
      belt and asked to extend the knee to maximal length. A purpose made wooden wedge will provide
      a right angle surface to ensure the hip is held at 90 degrees. The digital inclinometer will
      record the change in degrees of active knee extension post-test. The knee will be extended to
      end range, determined by the subject, with the hip, knee and ankle maintained in neutral. The
      non-dominant leg will be secured to the bed via a belt.

      To record the surface electromyography (SEMG) activity in the muscles of the participants in
      this study the Zerowire Cometa system will be used. This system will record the muscle
      activity wirelessly. Every electrode unit is equipped with a small unit for signal processing
      and transmission to the data receiver. The electrodes are single use disposable,
      self-adhesive silver chloride dual snap on electrodes pre-set at a distance of 20mm.

      All participants will have the skin prepared prior to the noraxon electrode being placed on
      their skin. Skin preparation will consist of shaving the area to remove any hair then wiping
      the area with alcohol wipe then the placing noraxon dual electrode in appropriate position in
      relation to recommendations by Seniam (2003). The electrodes are placed in line to the
      pennant of the muscle.

      Electrodes will be attached according to European recommendation (seniam) at the Paraspinal
      muscles, and the Biceps Femoris of the dominant leg. A baseline sEMG will then be taken
      whilst the participant is at rest for 60seconds. The electrode placement and sEMG recording
      will be taken by a qualified laboratory technician employed by Teesside University.

      The intervention will consist of unilateral lumbar mobilisations at the L4 and L5 level in a
      Posterior Anterior direction. The plinth will rest on force plates to allow the authors to
      analyse the force placed through the vertebrae. Grade three mobilisations will be applied for
      a one minute period three times at both L4 and L5 level. Each level will be determined by a
      passive physiological intervertebral movement. Participants will receive the mobilisations at
      L5 first for one minute followed by L4. This is an appropriate dose for mobilisation
      application (Maitland, 2013). This process will be carried out three times.

      Following either the control or intervention all measure lumbar flexion, hamstring
      extensibility and sEMG activity will be recorded immediately, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60 minutes
      post application as a single test.

      Data analysis will occur using the zerowire cometa system version 1.6. The raw rate will be
      smoothed and rectified using a Butterworth algorithm with a high pass filter with a cut of
      frequency of 20Hz at order 5 with the data will be rectified using route mean square (RMS)
      set at a window of 20ms.
