ANÁLISIS Y MEDIDAS PREVENTIVAS DE LAS LESIONES SIN CONTACTO EN EL FÚTBOL

ABSTRACT

Introduction:

Soccer is characterized by high intensity and great competitiveness, and several sports injuries frequently occur; one of the main categories of injuries is the non-contact ones.

Objective:

Study the situation of non-contact injuries in soccer and analyze its preventive measures.

Methods:

The experimental group adopted the intermittent training method to strengthen the proprioception and coordination ability of the athletes. In contrast, the control group adopted mainly traditional aerobic training, with a 40-day duration.

Results:

Among non-contact injuries in soccer sports, lower limb sprain and joint injuries represented an eminently serious proportion. After preventive exercise, the total FMS test score of the experimental group was 16.75 points, an increase of 26.03%, and that of the control group was 14.14 points, an increase of 3.49%. The performance of the experimental group was significantly improved.

Conclusion:

The sports training mode proposed in this study significantly reduces the probability of non-contact injuries during sports. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
