RESUMO:

The practice of physical activities by people with disabilities is increasingly observed, whether they are the most diverse corporal practices or the adapted sports in the search of the improvement of the quality of life and adhesion to an active lifestyle. The increase in the number of people with disabilities who seek these practices in order to stimulate their potential and possibilities for their physical, psychological and social well-being has been increasing in recent years. Among individuals with physical disabilities, undesirable biochemical and metabolic changes are established with physical inactivity, resulting in reduction of muscle mass and excessive accumulation of body adipose tissue, and consequent decrease in strength. The present study aimed to evaluate the relationship of body composition to the palmar grip strength of people with physical disabilities practicing functional training. Eight subjects with physical disability, of both sexes, aged between 16 and 59 years old, were evaluated, practitioners of functional training. All were submitted to 12 weeks of intervention using the functional training methodology. The medians for total mass, lean mass, fat mass,% G and force of right and left upper limbs were defined before and after intervention and these measures were performed in the DEXA and for the evaluation of upper limb strength, the manual grip dynamometer. Descriptive statistics were used with values of central tendency and their derivatives and inferential with significance level of p <0.05 for the hypothesis test, opting for the non-parametric strategy. There were no significant differences between the pre and post intervention findings regarding the components of body composition and strength of both limbs, as well as the relationship between body composition and strength, however, in the individual evaluation, we can observe significant differences. The results show that palmar grip strength levels do not depend solely on lean mass, but also% G, in which the correlation between lean mass and fat percentage may indicate a better or worse condition to perform the isometric manual grip effort.
