VMO Strengthening/Activation Exercises (Necessary/Possible to Isolate the Vastus Medialis Obliquus?)

VMO Specific Strengthening/Activation – not possible or necessary for rehab, performance, or aesthetics!

Intro (0:00)
Anatomy (0:12)

Patellofemoral Pain (1:28)
In the rehab world, the VMO became very popular in the treatment of patellofemoral pain because the thought was that patellar malalignment or maltracking was contributing to wear and tear of the patella leading to pain and dysfunction. So in order to treat this, the things pulling laterally on the patella like a “tight” IT Band had to be released while the things pulling medially like the VMO needed strengthening and neuromuscular re education. This theory hasn’t panned out.

And a lot of this is based on trying to find and change a 10ms difference in activation of the VMO. That’s .01 seconds. 1. Who cares? 2. It’s the chicken or egg scenario. Is maltracking causing your pain or is pain changing the way you move a bit?

To close the case on VMO specific training for patellofemoral pain, Smith and colleagues state “it is therefore recommended that clinicians should not focus on VMO strengthening” since it likely cannot be preferentially activated.

Performance/Aesthetics (3:57)
What about performance or aesthetics? Bodybuilders aspire to have that nice tear drop on the inside of their thigh.

Bodybuilders don’t just pick one exercise to train their lats. Instead, they have a rotation of several exercises because muscles might respond differently to different ranges of motion, contraction types, rep ranges, etc.

And how we perform an exercise can make a difference.

For example, Nunes and colleagues concluded that “head specific muscle hypertrophy may be obtained for the gastrocnemius” based on the foot positioning of the participants.

And the exercises we choose can make a difference.

Schoenfeld et al reported that the hamstrings can be regionally targeted through exercise selection – it matters if you’re doing a lying leg curl vs a stiff legged deadlift.

The rectus femoris doesn’t respond well to compound exercises that involve simultaneous hip and knee extension which I talked about in our reverse nordic video.

There’s not any good research, as I already mentioned, that shows that we can preferentially activate the VMO or that it would make any difference in the long run.

Chris Beardsley suggests larger ranges of motion “may cause slightly more vastus medialis growth due to longer working sarcomere lengths and stretch-mediated hypertrophy”

Takeaway (5:25)
So what’s my main takeaway? Whether it’s for pain, performance, or aesthetics, you shouldn’t be focusing on trying to strengthen or “re-educate” the VMO because it’s likely not possible to isolate or preferentially activate.

Patellofemoral pain responds to comprehensive hip AND knee strengthening and including a variety of exercises is likely best for performance and aesthetics as well. There are a lot of compound and isolation, weight bearing and non weight bearing exercises to choose from including single leg stepdowns, split squats, back squats, heel elevated squats, sissy squats, reverse nordics, leg extensions, etc.

Be consistent, use a large range of motion, and incorporate progressive overload and the vastus medialis will get worked plenty.

Concept2 BikeErg vs. Xebex Air Cycle: AirBike Showdown Review

🚴 Concept2 BikeErg – https://garagegymreviews.co/C2BikeErg
🚴 Xebex Air Cycle – https://garagegymreviews.co/XebexCycle

The Concept2 BikeErg is one of the best air bikes available. However, Xebex has surprised me greatly with this one…

The Concept2 BikeErg is one of my favorite air bikes of all time. To be honest, I love all of Concept2 products. The Concept2 Model D Rower is the best rower the Concept2 SkiErg is the best SkiErg and their monitors are fantastic.

With that said, the Xebex Air Cycle from Get RXd has surprised me greatly. It’s the closest copy I’ve seen and it actually does some things better than the C2 BikeErg.
