The study had a quantitative, analytical, cross-sectional and randomized characteristic and was held in 4 physical training centers. In a population of 550 individuals, the sample consisted of 134, adults of both sexes, bodybuilding practitioners. As a tool and collection, a questionnaire from Meneguzzi and Voser (2011) was used to verify the motivational aspects for the practice of physical activity. For data homogeneity and normality, the Levene and Kolmogorov- Smirnov test were used, respectively. To verify the association between qualitative data, the chi-square test was used. A 95% confidence interval was adopted, reflecting a value of p<0.05. The research participants were adults of both sexes with an average age of (30.7+9.11years) and a BMI of (25.29+3.4kg/m 2 ). The sample consisted of 49.25% men (n=66) and 50.75% women (n=68). There was no association between BMI and gender with motivational factors for the practice of strength training (p>0.05). With the exception of “social integration”, in all other factors the “extremely important” option was evident in most groups. We concluded in this study that, as a motivational factor, the majority of adults consider conditioning, aesthetics, health and anxiety control to be the practice of resistance training, as well as the different BMI and gender do not influence these responses.","PeriodicalId":115147,"journal":{"name":"MOJ Anatomy & Physiology","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116511677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There was a significant decrease in the scores of ESS that indicates decrease in day time sleepiness. The four domains of the quality of life that is physical health domain, psychological domain, social relationships and environmental domains were significantly increased followed by the intervention.

Phylogenetically, the PLM is considered a vestigial muscle in regression because it has a short belly and a long tendon1,2 and its function is considered insignificant in humans,3 although it weakly assists in flexing the wrist and resisting adduction and abduction movements.4 Numerous variations occur in the palmaris longus muscle and may even be absent unilaterally or bilaterally. The absence of the palmaris longus muscle seems to be hereditary, with dominant character, incomplete penetrance and lateral variability.2 When present, the PLM may present variations in the muscular belly and distal tendon. The muscular belly may be central (normal shape), distal (inverted shape), digastric or fully muscular.5 The distal tendon can be divided into two or three parts, that is, bitendinous or tritendinous, being referred to as an “accessory” muscle.6–11 The knowledge of the anatomical variations of the palmaris longus muscle is of great importance in the surgical area, since the PLM tendon meets the necessary length, diameter, availability and can be used in grafts without producing any functional deformity,12 for correction of upper eyelid ptosis, lower eyelid, lips and chins.3 The aim of the present study was to determine the frequency of the palmaris longus muscle, its morphometry and relations between its muscular and tendon parts.","PeriodicalId":115147,"journal":{"name":"MOJ Anatomy & Physiology","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130703674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
