MYOARTICULAR RECOVERY AFTER KUNG FU TRAINING

ABSTRACT Introduction Kung fu is a Chinese martial art with continuous movements based on step movement and embodied by the transformation of body shapes, requiring the athletes to strengthen the lower limbs. Joint and muscle analysis are critical to verify the strength of athletes’ lower limbs and play a guiding role in evaluating the level of recovery for injured athletes. Objective Explore the myoarticular recovery effect after kung fu training. Methods 24 kung fu athletes were randomly divided into experimental and control groups, with 6 males and 6 females in each group. The athletes in the experimental group received traditional martial training for 60 minutes, while the control group received relaxation training simultaneously. The experiment lasted for 6 months and was performed 6 times a month. Results After kung fu training, the rates of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group. Conclusion Kung fu training positively impacts the athletes’ muscle strength and joint strength. Kung fu training can also improve the level of myoarticular recovery and improve the flexibility of its practitioners. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
