Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between the presence of overuse injuries and failure to control of movement in those areas. For this, participants will perform some tests related to movement dysfunction lumbar-pelvic area to check for faults in one or more movement planes.

Conditions

Dysfunction;Joint; Overuse Injury

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Control of lumbopelvic movement

  It is seven tests to check the control of lumbopelvic movement. They are low-intensity tests to assess the ability to control movement of the stabilizing musculature. The mobilizing muscles should not have a dominant role in these tests. The test were recorder on video to be analyzed later

  Once, at baseline

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Pain sensation

  Once, at baseline

• Epidemiological registry

  Through study completion, an average of 2 year

Eligibility Criteria

• Sex: male
• Healthy Volunteers: Yes
• Age Groups: Child (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Fertiberia Puerto de Sagunto Club handball players, from national first division of Spain

You may qualify if:

• Players from the first team
• Without injury that does not allow movement tests

You may not qualify if:
