Estabilidad y propiocepción en atletismo

Resum

The purpose of this Thesis was to analyze the short-term and medium and long-term effects of type, intensity and volume of training on stabilometry and proprioception of athletes. Also, we analyzed of influence of postural stability on subsequent sports injuries and designed a proprioceptive training program that improves stability and other motor skills, by taking into account the short-term effects of the proprioceptive training in athletes. The findings highlight proprioception and postural stability are essential parameters to prevent injuries in track and field athletes. In medium-long terms, these parameters might be modified due to volume and intensity of training, and be benefit from proprioceptive training on unstable platform. In short-terms, high intensity trainings involve potential risk. Refering to sports skills, future researches are needed to clear if ímprovernents from proprioceptive training are transferable to performance.
