Fuerza muscular y flexibilidad de judokas masculinos de alto rendimiento que participaron en la liga española durante 2011

Resum

The objective To evaluate the effects of a judo training program on muscle strength of arms, lumbar muscles, flexibility and the possible correlation between these variables in judo high performance of Spain. The study considered 14 male athletes of high-performance with 19.5 ± 2.9 years and 66.1 ± 11.8 kg of body mass. The instruments for evaluation were: dynamometer for force of arms and lumbar muscles, and flexibility test of the sit and reach. The plan had a period of seven weeks of technical and physical training, with varying intensities in alternate periods. For data analysis parametric and nonparametric tests were used. The study variables showed a significant increase: lumbar (Δ% = 40.8%, p = 0.0001), arms (Δ% = 48.2%, p = 0.0006) and flexibility (Δ% = 25.2%, p <0.0001). In addition, no significant correlation between anthropometric variables and age when related to the percentage gains in strength and flexibility. However, the aspects that determine the strength of arm and muscles lumbar gains seem to be the same, where r = 0.71, p = 0.023, while the aspects that determine the flexibility gains does not seem to be the same forces that promote, where -0.118> r > -0.302 and 0.74> p> 0.37. The study indicates an improvement in the variables of strength and flexibility, was also found a correlation between the variables of force for the development of judo in high-performance.
