2.10.2. Physical Intervention
hip abductors
Postural Physical Intervention [PPI]: The 12-week program included twice a week 1 h sessions of postural exercises. Trios or quartets of subjects received an intervention, beginning with a 5 min warm-up with a stationary walk, followed by 15 min of muscle flexibility and joint mobility exercises. After 25 min of global muscle resistance exercises (the muscular groups emphasized were the paravertebrals, abs, extenders, flexors, adductors, hip abductors, shoulders, knees and elbows flexors and extenders), the session ended with 15 min of body awareness work through breathing. The evolution of the exercises, as well as the use of accessories such as balls, elastics, dumbbells, etc., respected the individuality of each one. A properly trained professional conducted the consultations, demonstrating the exercises and correcting them when necessary.
