Estudio de la flexibilidad isquiosural y su incidencia en la potencia de las extremidades inferiores en niños de 8 a 10 años.

Abstract

According to Fernandez (2003), the coordination capacities are extremely complex skills that influence the quality of the motor act and all activity that involves movement within human activity. They are represented by sensorimotor elements which manifest in a greater or lesser capacity of the individual control and regulation of the movement. In this paper we deepen on flexibility by being one of the most important physical qualities, manifested in all human actions, and that, however, more gradually regresses throughout life. Also cite some of the most commonly used tests and the most common methods of evaluating this capacity. The objective of this work is to check if the variation of the length of the hamstring muscle power affects the vertical jump in children of 8-10 years. A sample of seventy children (n = 70) was divided into two experimental groups forty (40) and control thirty (30). Two initial test Sit and Reach Flexibility Test (1952) and lower limb power test Bosco jump (1983), were performed after 3 months treatment was applied, and the tests were performed at end of treatment. In the test the flexibility and power of lower limbs of the study population was recorded, and the results were statistically analyzed using technical analysis of variance Anova.
