Effects of Traditional Strength Training and Olympic Weightlifting in Handball Players
RESUMEN
Introducción: El levantamiento olímpico de halterofilia, ha sido adoptado como alternativa al ejercicio pliométri-
co. Sin embargo, poco se conoce acerca de los efectos de estos ejercicios en jóvenes atletas de balonmano. Objetivo:
Comparar el efecto del entrenamiento con levantamiento olímpico y del entrenamiento tradicional de fuerza en el
desempeño de salto, sentadillas y aceleración en jóvenes atletas de balonmano. Se evaluaron diez atletas de balon-
mano del sexo femenino. Después de seis semanas de entrenamiento regular, las atletas fueron sometidas a ocho
semanas de entrenamiento específicamente diseñado para la investigación, con equivalencia del volumen total de
entrenamiento y de las diferencias de los medios utilizados. Las evaluaciones se realizaron después de seis semanas
230 Rev Bras Med Esporte – Vol. 25, No 3 – Mai/Jun, 2019
de entrenamiento regular (Baseline), después de cuatro semanas de entrenamiento tradicional de fuerza y después
de cuatro semanas de entrenamiento con levantamiento olímpico. Se cuantificaron los saltos verticales sin y con
movimiento de las extremidades superiores, aceleración de 10 m, 20 m y 30 m y 1 RM en las sentadillas. Resultados:
Se constató aumento (p < 0,05) de las aceleraciones y de las sentadillas en el entrenamiento con levantamiento
olímpico y en las sentadillas en el entrenamiento tradicional de fuerza. La diferencia en la coordinación, tiempo
para la activación del gastrocnemio, vasto lateral, recto femoral, bíceps femoral y glúteo máximo, pico de fuerza y
potencia y tasa de desarrollo de fuerza entre los saltos y ejercicios utilizados en los entrenamientos son hipótesis a ser
consideradas para las distintas respuestas adaptativas encontradas en los saltos. Conclusión: El entrenamiento con
levantamiento olímpico resultó en u aumento de la aceleración y fuerza, pero no en el desempeño del salto vertical
en atletas juveniles de balonmano. Nivel de Evidencia I; Estudios de Pronóstico - Investigación del Efecto de la
