    Association between gluteal muscle inhibition and lumbo-pelvic dysfunction and its impact on functional movement in desk-bound individuals
    (UMT, Lahore, 2025) SAZAIN; TAHA; AQSA HAMEED
    Musculoskeletal problems at work are called Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders; they occur when the risk factors at work damage muscles, nerves, tendons, joints, and cartilage or spinal discs. Musculoskeletal problems at work are called Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorders; they occur when the risk factors at work damage muscles, nerves, tendons, joints, and cartilage or spinal discs. Having low levels of gluteus muscle activity is a regular condition found in people with mechanical low back pain. In this cross-sectional study convenience sampling was used. The sample size was 97 desk bound individuals. Data was collecting from the stings like UMT (Main Campus), Napollo Software Designa nd Call Biz.The tools used to conduct the study were Single leg bridge test, Active straight leg raise (ASLR) test and functional movement screening (FMS) questionnaire. The findings of the study found no associations were found between sitting duration and Functional Movement (p=0.157) also in Body Mass Index and Functional Movement (p=0.152). Meanwhile, Significant Positive Association was found between Gluteal Muscle Inhibition and Functional Movement (p=0.002), Lumbo pelvic dysfunction and Functional Movement (p=0.000). Also Positive Association was found between Gluteal Muscle Inhibition and Lumbo-pelvic dysfunction (p=0.001). This study concludes that decrease gluteal muscle activation and lumbo-pelvic stability negatively impact the functional movement quality in office or desk bound individuals.
