EFFECT OF EXTREME CONDITIONING TRAINING ON BODY PERCEPTION

ABSTRACT Introduction Extreme conditioning training (ECT) has become a popular method, characterized by wide variety of exercises. For good technical performance, practitioners must have perception the different parts body; however, it is not known whether this differs between and non-practitioners ECT. Objective To analyze body dimensions among subjects submitted to an ECT session. Methods Adult men were divided into TRAINED (n = 10) UNTRAINED 10). All combination high-effort multiarticular exercises for set period nine minutes (“the largest possible number repetitions” [AMRAP]). procedure marking pattern, scored in terms acromioclavicular joints, waist trochanter. Results Regarding general size, groups classified as adequate each stage. In dimension segments, there was overestimation shoulder region both (TRAINED Pre 105.2 ± 8.37; Post 117.23 22.11 [ES 0.79]; 30 min 101.34 14.21 0.34] 96.72 12.79; 99.47 12.17 0.22]; 111.05 11.06 1.27]). The improved significantly after 114.11 16.4; 117.7 20.16 0.20]; 104.59 11.46 0.68] 114.66 9.88; 104.64 12.87; 0.88]; 108.36 12.32 0.57]). Conclusion can promote better dimensions. addition, assessment size active, but untrained individuals showed perception, albeit transitory effect. Level evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation treatment results.
