Abstract
This study aimed to analyse the maximum rate of torque development (peak RTD) of knee extensors and flexors of futsal players in the dominant (DM) and non-dominant member (NDM), as well as the interval time in which this value is reached. Eighteen futsal female players with no history of knee’s injury were evaluated (21.0 ± 2.8years; 56.4 ± 6.1Kg; 1.60 ± 0.1m) in a series of 5 repetitions of knee extension and flexion of DM and NDM at an angular velocity of 180°.s-1. The peak RTD of knee extensors and flexors was calculated by the derivative of Δtorque/Δtime. No significant difference in extensor peak RTD between DM and NDM (p = .97) and in flexors peak RTD (p = .47) were found. Time interval for maximum TDR achievement was between 0-100ms. There was no difference in the peak RTD of muscle groups analysed between DM and NDM, and time interval in occurred the peak RTD reveals symmetry between lower limbs, and time appropriate time for producing torque quickly.
