Relação entre força dinâmica máxima de membros inferiores e o equilíbrio corporal em praticantes de musculação

Abstract

The relationship between force and balance show controversy results and has direct implications in exercise prescription practice. The objective was to investigate the relationship between maximum dynamic force (MDF) of inferior limbs and the static and dynamic balances. Participated in the study 60 individuals, with 18 to 24 years old, strength training apprentices. The MDF was available by mean the One Maximum Repetition (1MR) in "leg press" and "knee extension" and motor testes to available of static and dynamic balances. The correlation tests and multiple linear regression were applied. The force and balance variables showed correlation in females (p=0.038). The corporal mass and static balance showed correlation for the males (p=0.045). The explication capacity at MDF and practices time were small: 13% for static balance in males, 18% and 17%, respectively, for static and dynamic balance in females. In conclusion: the MDF of inferior limbs showed low predictive capacity for performance in static and dynamic balances, especially for males.
