The purpose of this study was to determinate the effect of a 6-week specific-sprinter proprioceptive training program on core stability and gravity centre control in sprinters. Thirty-three athletes (21.82 ± 4.84 years, 1.76 ± 0.07 m, 67.82 ± 08.04 kg, 21.89 ± 2.37 kg/m2) from sprint disciplines were divided into a control (n=17) and experimental (n=16) groups. A 30 minutes proprioceptive training program was included in the experimental group training sessions. and it was performed for six weeks, three times each week. This program included 5 exercises with BOSU and Swiss ball as unstable training tools that were designed to reproduce different moments of the technique of a sprint race. Stability with eyes open and eyes closed, postural stability and gravity centre control were assessed before and after the training program. Analyzes of covariance (α = 0.05) revealed significant differences on stability in medial-lateral plane with eyes open, gravity centre control in the right direction and gravity centre control in back direction after the exercise intervention in the experimental athletes. Nevertheless no other significant differences were demostrated. A sprinter-specific proprioceptive training program provided postural stability with eyes open and gravity centre control measures improvements, although it is not clear if the effect of training would transfer to the general population. |
