“…In addition, it was observed that the selected articles aimed at studying the lower limbs. Only the study reported by Aidar et al [25] involved both the upper and lower limbs. Among the most studied exercises are knee extensors and flexors, hip flexors, plantar flexors, and dorsiflexors, while bench press exercises are the most common for the upper limbs.…”

Strength training protocols in hemiparetic individuals post stroke: a systematic review

et al. 2018

Introduction: Hemiparesis is one of the main sequels of stroke. Evidence suggests that muscle strength exercises are important in rehabilitation programs for hemiparetic patients, but wide variation in previously studied protocols makes the most suitable choice difficult in clinical practice. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate strength training protocols for people with hemiparesis after stroke. Methods: A systematic review of literature was performed in the PubMed, PEDro (Physiotherapy Evidence Database), SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online), and LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Science) databases. Only controlled clinical studies that contained strength training protocols for hemiparesis after stroke were selected. Results: In total, 562 articles were found. Of them, 12 were accepted for the systematic review. Although strength training protocols are effective in hemiparetic patients, we did not found a standard method for strength training. Conclusion: This systematic revision highlights the lack of a standard protocol for strength training, considering the following training parameters: volume, intensity, frequency, series, and repetitions. Isotonic exercises are most commonly used.

“…Physical activity has been described as an important way to promote physical and psychosocial health [1,2,3], in special groups [4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11] and disabled people [12]. Among physical activities, strength training has gained greater attention with several studies indicating better physical and psychosocial indicators [13,14,15].…”

(1) Background: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of different types of warm-ups on the strength and skin temperature of Paralympic powerlifting athletes; (2) Methods: The participants were 15 male Paralympic powerlifting athletes. It was analyzed the effects of three different types of warm-up (without warm-up (WW), traditional warm-up (TW), or stretching warm-up (SW)) on static and dynamic strength tests as well as in the skin temperature, which was monitored by thermal imaging; (3) Results: show no differences in the dynamic and static indicators of the force in relation to the different types of warm-up. No significant differences were found in relation to the Peak Torque (p = 0.055, F=4.560, η2p= 0.246 medium effect), and 1-Repetition Maximum (p = 0.139, F=3.191, η2p = 0.186, medium effect) between the different types of warm-up. In the thermographic analysis, there was a significant difference only in the Pectoral muscle clavicular portion between the TW (33.04 ± 0.71ºC) and the WW (32.51 ± 0.74ºC) (p = 0.038). The TW method also presented slightly higher values than the SW and WW in the Pectoral Muscles Sternal portion and in the Deltoid anterior portion, but with p-value &gt; 0.05; (4) Conclusions: that the types of warm-up studied do not seem to interfere with the performance of Paralympic Powerlifting athletes. However, the thermal images showed that traditional warm-up best meets the objectives expected for this preparation phase.

“…A partir disso, elaborar um método que possibilite a continuidade na prática de exercícios, tão importante para essa população, que seja eficaz e de baixo custo, possa ser uma estratégia interessante. 6,7 O uso de materiais como aparelhos de musculação, pesos livres e faixas elásticas são de uso comum para a prática de exercício físico e trazem resultados importantes na força muscular, capacidade funcional e composição corporal de adultos e idosos, inclusive para aqueles com sequelas após AVE. [32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46] As faixas elásticas são materiais de fácil utilização para prática de exercícios. São portáteis, de baixo custo, com formato que permite uma diversidade de movimentos e muito utilizadas para desenvolvimento de força muscular.…”

Objetivo: Comparar os resultados obtidos na força muscular de membros inferiores e capacidade funcional de pessoas com sequelas neurológicas após Acidente Vascular Encefálico, obtidos por meio de dois métodos de intervenção: uso de faixas elásticas e aparelhos de musculação. Métodos: 14 pessoas idades 58,5±9,4 (07 Grupo A; 07 Grupo B) participaram do programa de exercícios (grupo A intervenção com faixas elásticas e grupo B intervenção em aparelhos de musculação). Resultados: Houve aumento da força muscular, melhora do equilíbrio dinâmico e na capacidade funcional em sentar e levantar da cadeira para ambos os grupos. Conclusão: Exercícios físicos realizados com uso de faixas elásticas trazem benefícios para essas pessoas, tanto quanto os realizados em aparelhos de musculação.

A Randomized Trial Investigating the Influence of Strength Training on Quality of Life in Ischemic Stroke

Abstract: The results of this study indicate that there was an improvement in the measures of strength in EG, and that there was a correlation between improvements in strength and quality of life in these patients who had previously suffered a stroke at least one year prior to study.
