MÉTODO DE OTIMIZAÇÃO NO TREINO DE FORÇA DO TORNOZELO DURANTE O EXERCÍCIO

MÉTODO PARA OPTIMIZAR EL ENTRENAMIENTO DE LA FUERZA DEL TOBILLO DURANTE EL EJERCICIO

ABSTRACT

Introduction

Good ankle joint strength is a precondition for high-quality exercise and is an important factor in preventing joint injuries.

Objective

Explore the method of optimizing ankle strength training during exercise.

Methods

40 volunteers were selected and randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group. The 20 athletes in the experimental group were trained three times a week for six weeks using a control variable method, while the control group performed only professional daily physical training. Pre-training and post-training methods were used to collect and investigate the data regarding the effect of strength training on the ankle joint and its impact on skill and strength tests submitted to the athletes.

Results

Ankle strength training can improve ankle muscle strength and athletes’ ability to run and jump (P > 0.05).

Conclusion

Ankle joint strength training may improve athletes’ baseline sporting ability, improve ankle joint muscle strength, reduce the likelihood of joint injuries, and contribute to improved outcomes of various abilities, meriting further study and replication. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
