| Resumo: | Introduction: Badminton requires an extensive movement of the lower limbs and precise coordination of the upper extremity and trunk. In this way, the increase in flexibility and strengthening of power house have been pointed out as important in the evolution of athletic performance and injury prevention. Objective: Evaluate the effects of power house training and flexibility using the pilates method. Materials and methods: The sample included 14 amateur athletes of both sexes, aged between 13 to 19 years, who underwent 12 pilates training sessions. Flexibility tests (sit and reach), agility and central resistance (isometric flexion and extension of the trunk and lateral bridge) were performed before and after the intervention. Result: There was a significant improvement in flexibility, agility and left and right central resistance in relation to pre-test-intervention levels. In addition, there was a moderate correlation between resistance to pre-test and post-test extension, and flexural strength with agility. Discussion: It is evidenced that good levels of physical fitness of the valences investigated here promote a better performance of badminton players. Conclusion: The pilates method was effective in improving sports performance and injury prevention in amateur badminton athletes. |
