Učinki vadbe z nihajno palico na mišice trupa in zgornjega uda - pregled literature : diplomsko delo

Gorenc, Eva (author), Vauhnik, Renata (mentor)

Uvod: Vadba z uporabo vibracij je vedno bolj popularna v fizioterapiji in športu. Nihajna palica je eden od pripomočkov, ki je bil razvit z namenom dovajanja vibracij nizke intenzitete v telo in spodbujanja mišične aktivnosti. Namen: Z diplomskim delom smo želeli na podlagi pregleda strokovne in znanstvene literature ugotoviti različne učinke vadbe z nihajno palico na aktivacijo mišic trupa in zgornjega uda. Metode dela: V diplomskem delu smo uporabili opisno metodo dela s pregledom literature. Uporabili smo vire, ki smo jih poiskali v spletni podatkovni zbirki PubMed. Zaradi boljšega pregleda in možnosti lažje ponovitve iskanja, smo se osredotočili le na eno podatkovno bazo. Uporabili smo literaturo, ki je bila objavljena po letu 2011. Literaturo smo iskali v angleškem jeziku z naslednjimi ključnimi besedami: flexi-bar, vibration training, flexi-bar exercise. Rezultati: Osredotočili smo se na rezultate šestih raziskav, ki so ustrezali vsem našim vključitvenim kriterijem. Tri raziskave so raziskovale učinke vadbe z nihajno palico na mišice trupa, tri pa na mišice zgornjih udov. V dveh raziskavah so raziskovali tudi učinek vadbe na ravnotežje in v eni na zaznavanje bolečine. Raziskave so vključevale od 18 do 30 preiskovancev. Vse razen ene so imele kontrolno in testno skupino preiskovancev. V raziskavah so uporabili različne postopke intervencij in tudi različne metode za izvedbo meritev. V večini raziskav so dokazali, da vibracije, ki jih ustvarja nihajna palica, dodatno povečajo aktivacijo merjenih mišic. Rezultati so pokazali tudi, da različni vadbeni položaji različno vplivajo na merjene mišice. Pozitivni so bili tudi rezultati meritev spremembe zaznavanja bolečine in ravnotežja. Razprava in zaključek: Na podlagi rezultatov lahko zaključimo, da uporaba nihajne palice izboljša aktivacijo mišic trupa in zgornjih udov, kar prispeva k boljši stabilnosti trupa. Le ta prispeva k zmanjšanju zaznavanja bolečin in boljšemu ravnotežju. Pomembna je tudi izbira vadbenega položaja, glede na to, katere mišice želimo krepiti, saj se v različnih položajih posamezne mišice različno močno aktivirajo. Zaradi majhnega števila preiskovancev in velikih razlik v metodologiji, so potrebne dodatne raziskave za potrditev zanesljivosti že obstoječih rezultatov.

• Title: The effects of exercise training with an oscillatory pole on trunk and upper limb muscles - literature review : undergraduate thesis

Abstract

Introduction: Vibration exercises are becoming increasingly popular in physiotherapy and sport. An oscillatory pole is one of the accessories developed with the aim of inducing low-intensity vibrations in the body, and increasing the effectiveness of muscle activation. Purpose: Based on the review of specialized and scientific literature, the purpose of this thesis was to ascertain different effects of a flexible bar exercise training on the torso and upper limb muscle activation. Methods: In the thesis, the descriptive method was adopted, along with literature review. The sources used were found in the PubMed web database. The literature taken into consideration was published in English and after 2011, and the following keywords were used: flexi-bar, vibration training and flexi-bar exercise. Results: The research was based on the results of six studies that corresponded to all the inclusion criteria. Three studies focused on the effects of an oscillatory pole exercise training on the torso muscles, and the other three researched the effects on the upper limb muscles. In two of the studies, the exercise training effects on balance were also researched, while one study evaluated the effects on pain perception. The studies consisted of 18–30 subjects. Different intervention procedures and methods were adopted to perform measurements. Most studies revealed that the vibrations produced by an oscillatory pole further increased the activation of the muscles measured. Different exercise training positions had a different impact on the muscles. The results of the measurements of pain perception and balance were also positive. Discussion and conclusion: Based on the results, we can conclude that the exterior load in the form of vibrations using an oscillatory pole improves the torso and upper limb muscle activation, thus contributing to a better torso stability. Torso stability helps decrease pain perception and improves balance. Exercise training position is important and needs to be chosen depending on the muscles to be strengthened. It needs to be said that further studies are required to confirm the reliability of existing results because of a small number of test subjects and substantial methodological differences.
