Efeitos do alongamento ativo excêntrico dos músculos flexores do joelho na amplitude de movimento e torque

Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the changes in knee range of motion (ROM) and torque of knee flexor and extensor muscles after an active eccentric stretching program for the knee flexor muscles. Methods: Thirty-four volunteers (23 women and 11 men), aged 34.42±9.3 years, performed an active eccentric stretching program for the knee flexor muscles in the standing posture, consisting of seven repetitions of one minute each, with 30 seconds of resting between them. The stretching program was performed twice a week, for fo… Show more

“…Among these interventions, the following can be highlighted: 12 weeks of Pilates training in women [22], 5 weeks of resistance training in healthy adults [23], 24 months of a physical activity program, including aerobic, resistance, and stretching in elderly women [24], 11 weeks of Tae Kwon Do training in elderly subjects [25], the effects of Tai Chi exercise in older adults [26], and 4 weeks of active eccentric stretching in healthy women [27]. However, none of those are related to Capoeira and variables of flexibility, which make the results of this study important and not applicable for comparisons with the aforementioned studies, due to the unique and novel methodology applied.…”

“…Physical rehabilitation has used many techniques as resistance exercise, stretching, to minimize the physiological changes induced by increasing age [8,9]. It has been reported that stretching programs can ameliorate the loss of muscle mass, performance, flexibility, and improve well-being and independence of ageing people, especially women [10][11][12][13].…”

“…Avaliação da flexibilidade dos isquiotibiais em graus (°) por meio da fotogrametria. (BATISTA et al, 2008(BATISTA et al, , 2009. Já foi reportado aumento de ADM de IT, quando realizado AE, em cadeia cinética fechada, quando se realizaram sete repetições de 60s, 2 vezes por semana, durante 4 semanas (BATISTA et al, 2008(BATISTA et al, , 2009.…”

Desta forma, pode-se sugerir que ganhos de flexibilidade de IT podem ser obtidos com apenas 1 repetição de 60s de AE ou 2 repetições de 30s de MR, em cadeia cinética aberta, 2 vezes por semana, por 4 semanas, como detectamos no presente estudo, em idosas sedentárias da comunidade.…”
