In exercise, the instability of extremity may cause the injury of the joint or the muscle when fatigue. The purpose of this study is to develop a biomechanical testing model to evaluate the effect of fatigue on joint loading and further investigate the relationship between fatigue and the degree of instability during kinetic-chain exercise of the upper extremity. Fifteen healthy young male with no trauma history for this study. They were asked to complete open kinetic chain(Bench-Press) and closed kinetic chain(Push-Up) in normal speed. A Motion Analysis System (Three Dimensional Motion Analysis System,Motion Analysis Corp., Santa Rosa, C.A., U.S.A.In experiment), and one Force-Plate (Kistler Instrument AG CH-8408 Winterthur / Schweiz) were used to collect data. We analysis the degree of instability, joint angle, joint force and joint moment when fatigue in two exercise. In result, the Push-Up exercise shows the degree of instability (θ) increased 2.16° in pitching and increased 2.32° in yawing when fatigue. The degree of instability of initial and fatigue showed significant difference (P＜0.05) in both of pitching and yawing. When fatigue, the elbow flexion angle in down was decreased 11.25°. And the Shoulder axial force peak was increased 18%. Elbow lateral force peak was increased 10%, axial compression peak was decreased 4%, flexion moment peak was decreased 25%. Wrist axial compression in down was increased 12%. The Bench-Press exercise shows the degree of instability (θ) increased 9.13° in pitching and increased 5.60° in yawing when fatigue. The degree of instability of initial and fatigue showed significant difference (P＜0.05) in both of pitching and yawing. When fatigue, the elbow flexion angle in down was decreased 5.9°. And the shoulder anterior force peak was decreased 4%. Elbow anterior force in down was decreased 42%, lateral force peak was increased 32%, axial compression peak was decreased 8%, extension moment peak was decreased 27%, external rotation in down was decreased 25%. Wrist lateral force peak was increased 55%. In conclusion, when fatigue the elbow joint shear force are increase, and the upper extremity start rocked and become unstable, it may increase danger of joint injured.
