To investigate the effects of an exercise program, based on the Pilates Matwork method, on posterior chain flexibility and trunk mobility in healthy school age children.
The study was a parallel-group randomized clinical trial. The participants were randomly assigned to groups: Pilates Group (PG) and Control Group (CG). The program was developed at the Early Childhood Education Institute, Londrina-PR.
43 children with age between eight to 12 years, no prior knowledge of the Pilates method, and no exercise training in the last six months.
Four months of twice a week 50 min Pilates Matwork exercises were administered.
Flexibility and mobility, assessed using the sit-and-reach test, fingertip-to-floor test and photogrammetry. The assessors were blinded to the allocation of participants.
Three children were excluded before randomization and 40 were randomized (PG n = 20; CG n = 20).12 children were excluded during the protocol (PG n = 7; CG n = 5) and included in the intention to treat analysis. No significant difference between groups was observed for flexibility measures. There was a significant difference in the following outcomes for the PG: distance reached in the sit-and-reach test between pre-test (median 14.25[11.25-28.38]) and post-test (median 20.25[12.00-29.63]) (ES = 0.29, SRM = 0.73); Posterior angle of the knee in the fingertip-to-floor test between pre-test (median 191.60[187.20-191.60]) and post-test (median 189.00[185.90-191.50]) (ES = 0.56, SRM = 0.54).
There were no differences in posterior chain flexibility and trunk mobility between school age children who underwent Pilates Matwork exercises and the control. However, children who participated in the exercise program showed improvement in some results of flexibility.

研究基于普拉提垫上运动的锻炼方案对健康学龄儿童后链柔韧性和躯干活动性的影响。
这是一项平行组随机临床试验。参与者被随机分配到两组：普拉提组（PG）和对照组（CG）。该方案由洛伦齐纳 - 巴西南部的早期儿童教育学院制定。
43 名 8 至 12 岁的儿童，之前不了解普拉提方法，且在过去六个月内没有进行过任何运动训练。
每周两次，每次 50 分钟，进行 4 个月的普拉提垫上运动。
在随机分组前有 3 名儿童被排除，40 名儿童被随机分组（PG n=20；CG n=20）。在方案实施期间有 12 名儿童被排除（PG n=7；CG n=5），并纳入意向治疗分析。两组间柔韧性测量无显著差异。PG 有以下结果存在显著差异：坐立前伸测试中预测试（中位数 14.25[11.25-28.38]）和后测试（中位数 20.25[12.00-29.63]）的距离（ES=0.29，SRM=0.73）；指尖到地板测试中后膝角预测试（中位数 191.60[187.20-191.60]）和后测试（中位数 189.00[185.90-191.50]）（ES=0.56，SRM=0.54）。
接受普拉提垫上运动的学龄儿童与对照组在后链柔韧性和躯干活动性方面无差异。然而，参加运动方案的儿童在柔韧性的一些结果上有所改善。
