    Objetivos: Evaluar los cambios en el rendimiento del salto bilateral y unilateral y el ángulo de proyección frontal de la rodilla después de la implementación de un programa de entrenamiento del core en jugadoras de balonmano.

    Materiales y métodos: Se trata de un ensayo controlado aleatorio. Un total de 20 participantes de edad = 17,2 (1,9) años, altura = 1,7 (0,1) m, peso = 62,8 (7) kg fueron reclutadas y divididas en: un grupo de entrenamiento del core y un grupo control. El grupo de entrenamiento del core participó durante 8 semanas en un programa de fortalecimiento (2 veces por semana). Se recogió la altura de salto antes y después de la intervención, el tiempo de contacto y el índice de fuerza reactiva durante los saltos verticales de caída bilateral y unilateral. El ángulo de proyección frontal de la rodilla se midió sólo en los saltos de caída unilateral.

    Resultados: El grupo de entrenamiento del core aumentó la altura del salto bilateral en un 18,8% y mostró una diferencia estadísticamente significativa en el índice de fuerza reactiva desde la pre-intervención [0,07 (0,03)] hasta la post-intervención [0,10 (0,04)]. El grupo de entrenamiento también mejoró la altura de salto unilateral en un 20%, pero sólo en la pierna no dominante. Esta mejora se acompañó de una disminución estadísticamente significativa del ángulo de proyección frontal de la rodilla desde antes de la intervención [13,8 (7,38) grados] hasta después de la misma [9,3 (6,09) grados]. Las diferencias estadísticamente significativas se establecieron en p ˂0,05.

    Conclusiones: El entrenamiento de la fuerza del core aumentó el rendimiento del salto y podría desempeñar un papel importante en los programas de prevención de lesiones del LCA en jugadoras de deportes de equipo.

    Objectives: To evaluate changes on bilateral and unilateral jump performance and frontal knee projection angle after an implementation of a core strength program in female handball players.

    Equipment and methods: This is a randomized controlled trial study. A total of 20 participants [age = 17.2 (1.9) years, height = 1.7 (0.1) m, weight = 62.8 (7) kg ] were recruited and split in: a core training group and a control group. The core training group participated in 8 weeks in-season of a core strength program (2 times/week). Pre- and post-intervention jump height, contact time and reactive strength index were collected during bilateral and unilateral drop vertical jumps. Frontal knee projection angle was measured only at unilateral drop jumps.

    Results: Core training group increased the bilateral jump height by 18.8% and showed a statistically significant difference in reactive strength index from pre-intervention [0.07 (0.03)] to post-intervention [0.10 (0.04)]. The core training group also improved the unilateral jump height by 20%, but only at the non-dominant leg. This improvement was accompanied by a statistically significant decreased in the frontal knee projection angle from pre-intervention [13.8 (7.38) degrees] to post-intervention [9.3 (6.09) degrees]. Statistical significant difference was set at p ˂0.05.

    Conclusion: A core strength training increased jump performance and it could play a role in ACL injury prevention programs in female team players.

    Objectivos: Avaliar alterações no desempenho do salto bilateral e unilateral e ângulo de projecção do joelho frontal após a implementação de um programa de força do core em jogadoras de andebol feminino.

    Equipamento e métodos: Este é um ensaio controlado aleatório. Um total de 20 participantes com idade = 17,2 (1,9) anos, altura = 1,7 (0,1) m, peso = 62,8 (7) kg foram recrutados e divididos em: um grupo de treino principal e um grupo de controlo. O grupo de treino do core participou em 8 semanas de um programa de força do core (2 vezes/semana). A altura dos saltos pré e pós-intervenção, o tempo de contacto e o índice de força reactiva foram recolhidos durante os saltos verticais de queda bilateral e unilateral. O ângulo de projecção do joelho frontal foi medido apenas durante os saltos unilaterais de queda.

    Resultados: O grupo de treino aumentou a altura do salto bilateral em 18,8% e mostrou uma diferença estatisticamente significativa no índice de força reactiva desde os saltos pré-intervenção [0,07 (0,03)] a pós-intervenção [0,10 (0,04)]. O grupo de treino principal também melhorou a altura do salto unilateral em 20%, mas apenas na perna não dominante. Esta melhoria foi acompanhada por uma diminuição estatisticamente significativa do ângulo de projecção do joelho frontal desde a pré-intervenção [13,8 (7,38) graus] até à pós-intervenção [9,3 (6,09) graus]. A diferença estatisticamente significativa foi fixada na p ˂0.05.

    Conclusão: Um treino de força do core aumentou o desempenho do salto e poderia desempenhar um papel importante nos programas de prevenção de lesões ACL em jogadoras de equipas desportivas femininas.
