O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a percepção de praticantes de musculação sobre o treinamento de força como fator de proteção contra lesões. Trata-se de um estudo observacional, de corte transversal, com abordagem quantitativa dos dados. A amostra, não estratificada por conveniência, foi composta por indivíduos adultos, de ambos os sexos, praticantes de treinamento de força em um studio localizado na cidade de Campo Grande/MS. A coleta de dados ocorreu no período de setembro a outubro de 2021, por meio de formulário online, distribuído aos participantes do estudo por meio de aplicativo de mensagem. Foram coletados dados sociodemográficos e a percepção dos indivíduos quanto à capacidade protetiva do treinamento de força contra lesões. Participaram do estudo 80 pessoas, com idade variando de 19 a 57 anos (29,9±7,4 anos) e tempo de prática de musculação variando de dois meses a 30 anos (5,7±5,9 anos). Houve maior prevalência de indivíduos do sexo feminino (62,5%), na faixa etária de 18 a 40 anos (90,0%), solteiros (66,3%), pertencentes às classes C, D e E (90,0%), praticantes de musculação há mais de 1 ano (71,3%), numa frequência semanal de 3 a 5 dias (78,7%), com duração das sessões de até 1 hora (87,5%), em busca de saúde (85,0%). Quase metade dos participantes (45,0%) relatou a presença de lesões, sendo os joelhos a região mais afetada (23,8%), seguida da coluna lombar (11,3%), ombros (11,3%) e tornozelo/pés (10,0%). A maioria acredita que o treinamento de força contribui para prevenir ou melhorar as lesões (98,8%), devido ao fortalecimento muscular, articular e melhora do condicionamento físico (66,3%) e ao acompanhamento supervisionado e individualizado (25,0%). O grupo avaliado entende que o treinamento de força, quando realizado sob orientação profissional personalizada, atua na proteção contra lesões, pois os exercícios físicos melhoram a aptidão física muscular e osteoarticular.
