Vergleich wiederholter und statischer Dehnung der LWS in Extensionsrichtung bei gesunden Erwachsenen[*]

Zusammenfassung

Übliche Mittel zur Steigerung des Bewegungsausmaßes lumbaler Extension sind statisches oder wiederholtes Dehnen bis zum Ende des Bewegungsbereichs. Ziel der vorliegenden Studie ist herauszufinden, welche der beiden Techniken zur Steigerung des Bewegungsausmaßes lumbaler Extension im Vergleich zu einer Kontrollgruppe den größeren Zuwachs an Beweglichkeit bewirkte.

Gesunde Erwachsene steigern das Bewegungsausmaß ihrer lumbalen Extension häufiger durch wiederholte Dehnung im Endbereich der Bewegung als durch statisches Dehnen und signifikant mehr, als wenn die LWS nicht in Extensionsrichtung gedehnt wird.

Abstract

Common means to increase lumbar extension are static or repeated end-range stretching. The purpose of this study is to determine which of 2 techniques for increasing lumbar extension yielded greater motion increase in comparison to a conrol group.

Healthy adults increase lumbar extension more frequently through repetitive stretching end of range than through static stretching and significantly more than not stretching.
