PROPRIOCEPTIVE TRAINING WITH ELASTIC BANDS
Proprioception is the sense that informs the organism of the position of bodily parts. It regulates the direction and articular range of movement and allows automatic reflex reactions and responses. It participates in the development of the body schema in relation to space and gives support for the realization of motor actions. It also participates in balance or coordination. It is important in the common movements that we perform daily and, especially, in sports movements that require special coordination. Through the proprioceptors, the basic reflexes are activated that allow adjustments both at the muscle-tendinous level and in the stability components of the joint, which constantly send information about the position of the body, degree of elongation-shortening and muscular tension, speed, angle of movement, acceleration of the body and balance. This information is processed through the central nervous system to make the necessary adjustments at any time and generate the appropri...
