“…The results showed that strength training had no significant effect on dynamic balance in children with DCD. The results were consistent with findings of Bohannon 20 on patients referred to physiotherapy, Granacher and Gollhofer 18 and Granacher et al, 19 on prepubertal children but were not consistent with results of Kaufman and Schilling, 15 Kane and Bell, 16 Menz et al, 17 on children with motor deficit. It can be said that, this inconsistencies are due to different research and balance assessment methods and difference in level and severity of subjects' disorder.…”

“…The results showed that strength training program can increase muscle strength in DCD children. This finding was consistent with some previous researches on DCD 15,16 but was not consistent with reports of Menz et al 17 However, the child under study in the work of Menz et al, 17 was a 7-year-old girl who had apraxia, hypotonia and motor delay symptoms besides developmental coordination disorder. In addition, her training program was conducted with the use of machine weights strength training.…”

“…14 Also some case studies found that strength training improved the muscle strength; gross motor function and proprioception, 15 motor functions 16 and performance of gross motor skills 17 of DCD children. But a series of studies had contradictory results; they reported no significant correlation between postural control and muscle strength and concluded that postural control and muscle strength are independent from each other.…”

Introduction.Balance is one of the main problems of children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD). According to process-oriented approach, besides strength training, neuromuscular adaptations can improve balance. Objective. To evaluate the effects of strength training on improving static and dynamic balance in DCD children. Methods and population. Children between 7 to 9 years old in Tehran participated in the study through randomized controlled trial design. Subjects were randomly divided into two experimental (n = 15) and control (n= 15) groups. The participants exercised for 12 weeks and 24 sessions. The experimental group received strength training using flexible Theraband elastic exercise and control group received routine exercises in physical education class. Isometric strength of hip abductor muscles and plantar flexors were measured using hand held dynamometer, and Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency, Second Edition (BOT-2) was used for measurement of static and dynamic balance. Data were analyzed using independent and paired sample t-tests. Results. Strength training significantly increased muscle strength in DCD children (P <0.001) and improved their static balance performance (P <0.05); however, these exercises had no significant effect on their dynamic balance performance (P >0.05). Conclusion. The strength training leads to static balance improve in DCD children. There was not an improvement in dynamic balance through the strength training in these children.

Exercise enhances motor skill learning by neurotransmitter switching in the adult midbrain

Physical exercise promotes motor skill learning in normal individuals and those with neurological disorders but its mechanism of action is unclear. We find that one week of voluntary wheel running enhances the acquisition of motor skills in normal adult mice. One week of running also induces switching from ACh to GABA expression in neurons in the caudal pedunculopontine nucleus (cPPN). Consistent with regulation of motor skills, we show that the switching neurons make projections to the substantia nigra (SN), ventral tegmental area (VTA) and ventrolateral-ventromedial nuclei of the thalamus (VL-VM). Use of viral vectors to override transmitter switching blocks the beneficial effect of running on motor skill learning. We suggest that neurotransmitter switching provides the basis by which sustained running benefits motor skill learning, presenting a target for clinical treatment of movement disorders.
