INTENSIFICAÇÃO DAS HABILIDADES DO CENTRO ABDOMINAL NO TREINAMENTO DE FORÇA MUSCULAR PARA ATLETAS VELOCISTAS

Abstract

ABSTRACT Introduction Running is a speed-based physical activity, and abdominal core strength training is a good technique for athletes. The method of abdominal core strength training consists of training the muscles of the central part of the human body, which also aims to improve the physical coordination of its practitioners. Objective Analyze the effects of abdominal core strength training on athletes’ physical performance and performance in competitions. Methods Twenty sprinters were selected as volunteers and had their EMG signals and muscular endurance of the lower body muscles compared during the experiment. The athletes performed an abdominal core training cycle. The statistical method was used to perform an analysis of the obtained data. These experimental data were adjusted, and significant correlations were discovered. The research results of this paper provide a theoretical basis for formulating the athletes’ training strategies. Results The maximum muscular endurance of male and female sprinters was statistically different (P<0.05). Fitness indicators improved in sprinters after abdominal core strength training. The studies were statistically different (P<0.05). Athletes’ performance improved after abdominal core strength training. The data were statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The physical performance and performance of sprinters are positively correlated with abdominal core strength training. Sprinters should focus on abdominal core strength training in their daily training. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
