Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 30 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Healthy and sedentary volunteers; both genders; age between 18 and 60 years; not having undergone surgical procedures; not having undergone hip rehabilitation; not having undergone a musculoskeletal injury to the lower limbs / trunk in the last 6 months; perform less than 2 days a week of muscle strengthening or resistance activities; know how to swim; present minimum clinical and cognitive conditions for performing activities in the pool through the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q); not presenting contagious dermatological changes; urinary and fecal incontinence.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Failure to perform the passive stiffness test of the hip lateral rotators; at the request of the volunteer himself; changes in the routines of the volunteers in the control group, lack of more than 15% in the interventions. Presence of muscle contraction during the passive RL stiffness test of the hip. Pain reported during the procedure that prevents its correct execution.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Assess the amplitude of passive medial rotation of the hip in degrees using a validated clinical test for the measurement.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected that the mean passive stiffness of the lateral hip rotators will be higher after training when compared to the control group.
