Efeito de um programa de treinamento de fnp na força e na Flexibilidade em praticantes de musculação

Abstract

The main goal of the present study is the evaluation of the influence of flexibility training on muscle strength. The sample consisted of thirteen men bodybuilders aged twenty to thirty years, with an advanced level of training, which were active for at least a year. The involved joint for the study was the shoulder. For this assessment be made of the flexibility we used a device called Flexmeter, which measures the range of motion. It was performed three movements of the shoulder joint during the stretching exercises. The muscles of the scapular region are involved in testing, however, only the pectoral muscle group is that he was taken into consideration, it was through their values obtained in the evaluation of the strength that we could evaluate the test results. The way of evaluating the force used was one repetition maximum, which uses the bench press, a horizontal bench, an iron bar and rings a weight room. On the one repetition maximum was assessed the maximum load that an individual can endure in just a single repetition. Statistical analysis was verified and compared the values of flexibility and muscle strength by mean, standard deviation and test T. We conclude that flexibility training had no influence on muscle strength, and that positively influenced the increase in flexibility. Thus, people who do not exercise flexibility tend to have the values of their not increased range of motion in some movements, but tend to have an increase in muscle strength when practiced strength training.
