The effect of rehabilitation exercises on the rupture of the back muscles in terms of the range of motion and the degree of pain among weightlifters

Abstract

Spinal injury is one of the most common injuries that players are exposed to in various sports, including weightlifting, where the pain is in the lower back, especially the lumbar region, and some players have been exposed to this injury due to the nature and sensitivity of the region and the problems it is exposed to that prevent the player from performing the optimal performance required of him. Also, this area is one of the most mobile areas in the spine, and it is responsible for the basic movements of the spine (flexing forward, bending backward, leaning to the right, leaning to the left, turning to the right, turning to the left). Research problem It was found that part of the research is directed towards treatment with physical medical devices such as laser and electrotherapy, and sometimes the patient is satisfied with physical therapy only, through his sense of the disappearance of pain, but at the moment of his practice of any simple exercise, pain appears on him, which prompted the researcher to design a rehabilitation program that includes a group From exercises to rehabilitate the injured, in terms of the range of motion of the spine and the degree of pain. The research aims to identify the differences between the pre and post test of the range of motion of the trunk and the degree of pain, where the researcher used the experimental approach to suit the nature of the research. The research sample consisted of 8 patients, one experimental group

Before me, after me  The research sample implemented the qualifying program for a period of  10 weeks, at the rate of 3 qualifying units per week , as the research sample began implementing the training program on  4-10-2022 until  8-11-2022 The data were treated statistically, and after presenting, analyzing and discussing the results, the researchers came out with several conclusions, including

The exercises prepared by the researcher contributed effectively to improving the range of motion of the spine

Where the researcher recommended continuing to perform rehabilitative exercises from time to time, especially the affected area and the surrounding muscles in a regular and continuous manner for the purpose of maintaining muscle flexibility
