RESUMO:

 

Introduction: The Pilates method (PM) consists of a set of systematized exercises, with evidence with effects on physical conditioning and rehabilitation. Objective: Until the moment of the elaboration of this study, no studies were found to analyze the correlation between the activation of the abdominal muscles (AM) and the pelvic floor muscles (PFM) during the execution of the electromyographic activity of PM exercises in climacteric women. For this study we selected the Shoulder Bridge and Teaser exercises with variations. Methods: The study is characterized as analytical, observational and cross-sectional. 28 climacteric women were evaluated (mean age 54.14 ± 6.14 years), with an average of 4 years of Pilates practice, most of them doing it twice a week (85.7%). The sample was for convenience. All the volunteers underwent the functional evaluation of PFM by bidigital palpation. The electromyographic activity was investigated by the Miotool® device. The capture of electromyographic signals for the PFM was performed with endovaginal catheter (Chatanooga®) and, for the abdominal muscles, with Al / AgCl (Meditrace®) surface electrodes. Statistical analysis of the data was performed using the SPSS program (version 20.0). The normality test used was the Shapiro-Wilk test, using mean and standard deviation for quantitative data evaluation. The presentation of categorical data was given by relative frequencies. For the analysis of the electromyographic data, the Spearman correlation was used. Results and Conclusion: The results showed that there was no relation between electromyographic activation, simultaneously, between PFM and AM, in the selected exercises.
