Ejercicios Progresivos- Resistidos en Niños con Síndrome de Down para mejorar la Motricidad Gruesa

Abstract

This research aims to test the application of progresivos- resisted exercises to improve gross motor skills in children with Down syndrome, through a convenient sampling character involved in a group of 30 children with Down syndrome 6 to 12 years. For this research has been used Test Measurement of motor function, through which a detailed knowledge to improve adequately the movements that children are developed to activate the large muscles and thus facilitate balance was obtained, improving strength, mobility and speed of movement.
