Abstract

Weight training leads to muscle injury for inexperience exercise. The deadlift form is one of high risk posture of weight training. Therefore, the prevention of incorrect deadlift form needs an expert trainer. Some people are not be able to effort the private trainer cost. This research presents the deadlift form analysis system using Microsoft Kinect. Microsoft Kinect can be applied to detect the deadlift form with its full body motion capability the Chaffin's biomechanical modeling. The Chaffin's model is used to calculate two forces, compression force and shear force, on lumbosacral disc (L5/S1). Results of this research can help the people to practice the corrected deadlift form and reducing injuries on lumbosacral disc (L5/S1) using Microsoft Kinect. The accuracy of this system is 80.9%.
