MYOFASCIAL RELEASE FOR POSTURE CORRECTION IN MALES AGED 25-35 YEARS

Abstract:

Aim. The paper aims to justify the effectiveness of posture correction with myofascial release in males aged 30 ± 5 years. Materials and methods. The study was conducted at Alex Fitness fitness club (Chelyabinsk, Russia) and involved 24 males with postural deformities aged 30 ± 5 years. Two groups of 12 persons each were formed to assess the effectiveness of posture correction with myofascial release. In the control group, a standard fitness program was proposed, while in the experimental group the standard fitness program was used together with myofascial release. The effectiveness of posture correction was assessed with force platform measurements (MBN, Russia). Results. As a result of the experiment, ellipse area decreased by 13% with eyes open and by 6% with eyes closed; ellipse length-to-width ratio decreased by 5.54% with eyes closed; balance indicator improved by 10% with eyes closed; stability indicator improved by 20% with eyes open. Myofascial release with TRIGGER PYRAMID provides significant improvement of postural indicators, which justifies the effectiveness of posture correction with myofascial release in males aged 30 ± 5 years.
