FUNCTIONAL TRAINING EFFECTS ON POSTURAL CONTROL CAPACITY IN SPORTS DANCERS

ABSTRACT Introduction Functional training can improve athletes’ coordination and physical control. Some studies prove the improvement of the strength of the core muscles after functional training. However, the research that questions athletes’ dynamic balance submitted to functional training is inconclusive. Objective To analyze the methods of postural control and the impact of functional training on sports dancers. Methods Young sports dancers were randomly divided into control and experimental groups. Both groups performed traditional fitness training, and a functional training protocol was added to the experimental group. Mathematical statistics were employed in the comparative analysis of the fitness of the two groups of athletes before and after training. Results The athletes in the functional training group rapidly achieved postural control ability, with high statistical relevance(P<0.05). Conclusion Athletes need to adopt a scientific and systematic training plan when performing sports dance training. The establishment of the test indexes for postural control ability in athletes can be diversified. Evidence Level II; Therapeutic Studies – Investigating the results.
