    El objetivo del estudio fue analizar la coactivación de los músculos del tronco durante ejercicios de estabilización del raquis. Para ello, se registró la electromiografía de los músculos rectus, obliquus externus y obliquus internus abdominis y erector spinae durante la realización del puente dorsal, el puente ventral y el puente lateral derecho e izquierdo. Los niveles de activación muscular necesarios para estabilizar el tronco durante la ejecución de los puentes fueron bajos o moderados. Los músculos abdominales se activaron principalmente en el puente ventral y lateral, y el erector spinae en el puente dorsal. En los puentes laterales se activaron todos los músculos del lado del brazo de apoyo. Por el contrario, los puentes ventral y dorsal aislaron la activación de los músculos abdominales y lumbares, respectivamente. Estos resultados podrían facilitar la selección de ejercicios de estabilización para el diseño de programas de acondicionamiento de los músculos del tronco.

    The aim of this study was to analyze the trunk muscle coactivation during spine stabilization exercises. The electromyography of rectus, obliquus externus and obliquus internus abdominis and erector spinae was recorded while performing the back bridge, the front bridge and the right and left side bridge exercises. The muscular activation levels needed to stabilize the trunk in the bridge exercises were low or moderate. Abdominal muscles were mainly activated in the frontal and lateral bridge, and erector spinae in the back bridge. All trunk muscles from the side of the arm of support were activated during the lateral bridges. On the contrary, frontal and back bridges isolated the abdominal and lumbar muscle activation, respectively. These results may facilitate the stabilization exercise selection to design trunk muscle conditioning programs.
