Analysis of strength of particular muscle groups in children with postural disorders
Abstract:
The objective of this paper was to analyse the level of strenght of particular muscle groups in children aged 10-11 who have postural disorder. The research was conducted in Subotica, on a sample of 67 children from which 22 had kyphotic postural disorder, 18 with lordotic potural disorder and a total of 27 children with a disturbed longitudinal instep ie flat foot. A battery of standard motor tests was used for measuring the level of strength of particular muscle groups: static strength of the arms and shoulders, standing broad jump (cm) and Sit-ups in 60 s (freq). The results indicate that there are significant statistical differences in the manifestation of strenght within all three variables: kyphotic postural disorder, lordotic postural disorder and disturbed longitudinal instep ie flat foot.
