Slackline challenges balance by walking on a tensioned strap, where the trunk muscles help to maintain or regain balance. This study aimed to compare a cohort of individuals who regularly practiced slackline and physically inactive individuals on core endurance (CE) and dynamic balance (DB) and to determine whether CE is associated with years of slackline practice. Nine individuals (7 men) who practiced slackline regularly (SG; age= 24.5±3.6 years) and nine physically inactive individuals (7 men) (CG; age= 23.2±3.3 years) were compared. CE was assessed with the McGill battery (trunk flexor, extensor, and side-bridge test) and the plank test. DB was measured with the modified star excursion balance test in stable and unstable conditions. The SG maintained a 36.2% and 45% longer time in left lateral bridge (p=.049) and plank (p=.031), respectively, compared to the CG. The distance achieved in the stable DB test was similar between groups, but in unstable condition was 37.8% greater (p=.016) in SG in both legs and 46.6% greater in the non-dominant leg (p=.039) compared to CG. The SG showed a correlation between years of slackline practice and flexor (r=.674; p=.046), right lateral (r=.765; p=.016) and left (r=.730; p=.026) trunk endurance. In conclusion, those who practice slackline maintain a longer time in the plank and left lateral bridge test and achieve a higher reach distance in unstable DB compared to physically inactive individuals who do not practice slackline. Resumen. El slackline desafía el equilibrio al caminar sobre una cinta en tensión, donde los músculos del tronco ayudan a mantener o recuperar el equilibrio. El objetivo de este estudio fue comparar individuos que practicaban slackline e individuos inactivos fisicamente (IF) en resistencia del core (RC) y equilibrio dinámico (ED), y conocer si la RC se asocia a los años de practica de slackline. Nueve individuos (7 hombres) que practicaban slackline regularmente (GS; edad= 24.5±3.6 años) y nueve individuos IF (7 hombres) (GC; edad= 23.2±3.3 años) fueron comparados. La RC se evaluó con la bateria de McGill (prueba de flexores y extensores de tronco y puente lateral) y la prueba de la plancha. El ED se midió con la prueba de excursión de la estrella modificada en condiciones estables e inestables. El GS mantuvo un tiempo 36.2% y 45% mayor en puente lateral izquierdo (p=.049) y plancha (p=.031) respectivamente comparado con el GC. La distancia alcanzada en la prueba de ED estable fue similar entre grupos, pero en condición inestable fue 37.8% mayor (p=.016) en GS en ambas piernas y 46.6% mayor en la pierna no dominante (p=.039) comparado al GC. El GS mostró una correlación entre años de práctica de slackline y resistencia flexora (r=.674; p=.046), lateral derecha (r=.765; p=.016) e izquierda (r=.730; p=.026) de tronco. En conclusión, quienes practican slackline mantienen un tiempo mayor la prueba de la plancha y puente lateral izquierdo y logran un mayor alcance en ED inestable comparados con individuos IF que no lo practican.

“…The PPLT assesses a dog's trunk muscle endurance in a safe and objective manner. The plank (or prone bridge) is reliably used to assess human core muscle endurance (10,44,47,(55)(56)(57)(58)(59). To perform the PPLT, the dog's Plank measurements are first obtained (see above).…”

The Penn Vet Working Dog Center Fit to Work Program: A Formalized Method for Assessing and Developing Foundational Canine Physical Fitness

2020

Fit to Work is a formalized working dog foundational physical fitness assessment and development program. The Penn Vet Working Dog Center developed this program to address the needs of working dog handlers, trainers, and programs for simple, effective, and efficient methods to develop and assess working dog physical fitness. Fit to Work focuses on the foundational fitness modalities of strength, stability, mobility, and proprioception. The Penn Vet Working Dog Center piloted and refined this program over 3 months in a closed population of 31 working dogs in training. Fit to Work consists of posture development and maintenance, warm-up and cool-down routines, training exercises, and assessment methods. To simplify implementation for dogs and personnel, the foundational training program incorporates a discrete number of exercises, standardized progression steps, defined criteria for progression, and a reduced emphasis on learned behaviors. Fit to Work also enables safe and progressive assessment of foundational fitness through a tiered and inexpensive process. Future research will focus on validation of training and assessment methods, development of assessment standards, and correlation of physical fitness with operational performance.

“…Até o presente momento nenhum estudo avaliou o exercício prancha ventral até a exaustão com diferentes instabilidades, mas já existem trabalhos que analisaram o exercício PV-SO até a exaustão, que é válido e confiável para avaliar a musculatura do core 27,50 . A forma randomizada em que os exercícios foram realizados, a quantidade de testes até a exaustão na mesma sessão, o tipo de superfície inicial na sessão de aquisição de dados e o intervalo de descanso entre os testes, podem ter influenciado em um menor tempo para todos os exercícios quando comparado com alguns estudos que fizeram somente o exercício PV-SO até a exaustão.…”

“…Todavia, o estudo apresenta limitação, como a ausência de análise da frequência mediana para avaliação da fadiga neuromuscular. Pode-se dizer que foi uma falta importante na análise de ambos os exercícios uma vez que não é somente relevante o aumento da amplitude do sinal, mas também o decréscimo significativo da Fmed49 .Bohannon et al50 investigaram o desempenho, a validade e a confiabilidade do exercício prancha ventral, entre uma população de idosos (30 mulheres, 66,9 anos, estatura 163.1 cm, massa corporal 62.2 kg, IMC 23.4 kg/m², circunferência de cintura 79.8 cm; 30 homens, 68,4 anos, estatura 175.7, massa corporal 87.9 kg, IMC 28.5 kg/m², circunferência de cintura 101.1cm) e de jovens (30 mulheres, 24 anos, estatura 164.1 cm, massa corporal 62.4 kg, IMC 23.2 kg/m², circunferência de cintura 73.6 cm; 30 homens, 25,4 anos, estatura 180.8 cm, massa corporal 74.8 kg, IMC 25.4 kg/m²). Na primeira visita ao laboratório, eles foram submetidos a responder questionários e depois a realizar o exercício prancha ventral durante o maior tempo possível, bem como foram solicitados a avaliar subjetivamente seus esforços.…”
