“…Interestingly, a common sport injury prevention regime involves repetitive active stretching followed by periods of seated resting (Green et al, 2002). A study by Green et al (2002) demonstrated that this sequence of preparation tends to augment lumbar spine stiffness.…”

“…I have found it is of particular importance to educate and reinforce upon the patient that maintenance of lumbar lordosis is critical, once re-established, to avoid recurrence of the problem. 2,[11][12][13] Once pain management and closed disc reduction has been clinically established the goal of care should be to direct the preservation and improve- Figure 9.

ResumenEstá aceptado que se debe llevar a cabo una rutina de calentamiento previa a la actividad física que se vaya a realizar. También parece aceptado que esta rutina de berá constar de una parte aeróbica y otra de estiramientos, además de ejercicios específicos de la actividad física o deporte a realizar. Pero existe incertidumbre en cuanto a qué tipo de actividad llevar a cabo, la intensidad, la duración, el tiempo de recuperación y los mecanismos fisiológicos que condicionan todos estos aspectos. Se ha realizado una revisión bibliográfica que aborda cada uno de estos puntos desde la perspectiva de un deporte anaeróbico intermitente como es el voleibol, donde la potencia y la agilidad reactiva son factores determinantes del rendimiento. En base a las evidencias científicas presentadas se concretan los aspectos claves a cumplir en el diseño de un calentamiento pre-partido en voleibol y se describe una propuesta práctica de calentamiento que pueda ser aplicada por los preparadores físicos en voleibol.Palabras clave: deporte acíclico, deporte de potencia, eficiencia pre-partido, rendimiento. AbstractA warm-up routine before any physical activity is recommended. It is generally established that this routine must consist of several parts, one aerobic and one involving stretching, in addition to some exercises that are specific to the physical activity or sport that it is going to be performed. However, there is uncertainty regarding the adequate type of activity, intensity, duration, recovery time, and the physiological mechanisms which determine all these factors. A review has been carried out that tackles each one from the perspective of an intermittent anaerobic sport where power and reactive agility are determinant in performance. Based on the scientific evidence shown in this review, we provide guidelines for volleyball match warm-ups and a warm-up proposal which may be used by volleyball strength and conditioning coaches.

Low-back stiffness is altered with warm-up and bench rest: implications for athletes

Abstract: It was concluded that a warm-up followed by bench rest does lead to an increase in stiffness of the lumbar spine, suggesting this practice is not in the best interest of reducing the risk of back injury or optimal performance.
