Sagittal Configuration of Spinal Curvature Line in Sportsmen Using Moire Technique

Abstract: Summary: A separate moire photograph of 380 men's back was taken. Using a micro-computer the sagittal configuration of the spinal curvature line was reconstructed based on the moire fringe on the back. Then the sagittal configuration of this line was compared among groups according to their sports: rugby, soccer, kendo, swimming, yachting, four track and field events (sprinting, distance running, jumping, and throwing), body-building as well as non-athletic men.Distance runners and sprinters had a greater degr… Show more

“…Training-induced body adaptations to the demands of a given sports discipline typically magnify the asymmetry (Starosta, 1993). Uetake and Ohtsuki (1993) found progression in the angles of thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis that increased with training experience. Similar tendency compared to control group was observed by Wojtys, Ashton-Miller, Huston, Moga (2000).…”

“…O equilíbrio das articulações pode ser alterado por mau alinhamento postural, ou seja, a constante execução de padrões de movimentos dos segmentos biomecanicamente incorretos, com os músculos posicionados em posições encurtadas ou alongadas em relação ao ideal, altera a eficiência da contração muscular normal e, assim, fazem com que os músculos sejam usados em desvantagem mecânica, diminuindo a sua eficiência (29) . O desequilíbrio musculoesquelético também pode ser resultante das características individuais dos sujeitos, e as próprias do esporte (34) .…”

“…No entanto, há predomínio na literatura (11,21,28,34) de anteriorização dessa região em escolares pela falta de atividade física, posturas inadequadas como carregar mochila, e assistir televisão. Além disso, nutrição deficiente durante a fase de desenvolvimento motor, fatores psicológicos e outras causas de etiologia desconhecida (30) .…”
