The purpose of this study of bibliographic review was to analyze the importance of postural hygiene and the realization of active breaks, in addition to supporting the theoretical elements that speak about active breaks and skeletal muscle disorders in workers both in the administrative area and in work that require physical strength, the publications were systematically searched in different databases, without restriction of language in the vast majority from the year 2010, applying selection criteria which were previously established, a total of 11 articles were chosen. The results of the analysis of these articles show that active pauses have positive effects on skeletal muscles disorders (MSD), relieving pain and discomfort in the main areas such as shoulders, neck and back, although there was also a discrepancy compared to articles. who mention that after a few months there were no positive effects and even some participants had a regression of these benefits despite continuing with active breaks, this is attributed to the fact that the same exercises are always repeated over a long period of time. In conclusion, active breaks are beneficial for the prevention of MSDs, but it should be taken into account that the exercises should be varied every 3 months to have long-term results.

In the first phase, strength and flexibility levels were measured, focusing on upper extremities, lower extremities and trunk. Subsequently, a second intervention phase was carried out consisting of a) a physical conditioning process for two weeks, and b) a gymnastics program for 6 weeks. Finally, in the third phase, the levels of strength and flexibility are measured again, to observe if there were changes in their capacities, and a correct execution of the gymnastic elements. The results obtained were favorable, since a great difference was obtained in the strength and flexibility capabilities, between the pre-test and post-test, which was assessed by analyzing the data from the physical tests performed. In all test data, a bilateral significance level of 0.000 (p < 0.001) was obtained, which means that the applied gymnastics program had a positive effect. Finally, the execution of the gymnastic elements was evaluated through a checklist, verifying who could perform them. It was obtained that over 20 participants managed to execute all the techniques correctly.

This research work is a literature review that aims to identify the benefits of recreational dance in older adults and its influence on self-esteem and depression. For the selection of articles, four digital databases were used, and studies in Spanish, English and Portuguese that had been carried out since 2005 on adults over 60 years of age were searched. A total of 11 scientific papers were selected on the basis of the established selection criteria. The results obtained in this literature review indicated that dance is a viable treatment option to improve self-esteem and reduce depression in older adults, and also has other benefits in improving the health of older adults. However, some studies showed little improvement in depressive symptoms, which may be associated with sample size. In conclusion, a controlled and systematized dance intervention that includes trained personnel with adequate dance training can positively influence older adults with depressive symptoms and low self-esteem, and can also contribute to physical improvements, so this type of activity is of great importance in the health of older adults.

(Universidad de Cuenca, 2025-03-12) Jiménez Plaza, Pedro Joel; Tacuri Peláez, Elsa Leonor
The development of general coordination in the first years of life constitutes a fundamental pillar for an adequate motor development in later childhood. However, this area is often underestimated in the school environment, especially in public institutions, where teachers, addressing multiple areas of knowledge, often lack specialized training in motor development. In view of this problem, the present study aimed to analyze the impact of a program based on traditional games to improve general coordination in preschool children at the “Antonio Borrero” Early Education Center. The research adopted a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design. The research included 39 students divided into two groups: an experimental group made up of 21 children from classroom “B”, and a control group made up of 18 children from classroom “D”. The results showed a significant impact in the experimental group, where an improvement was observed in the average scores from pretest to posttest. In the case of men, average scores increased from 38 to 42.8, while in women they increased from 41 to 48.7. To analyze differences within and between groups, nonparametric tests were used, specifically the Wilcoxon test for related samples and the Mann-Whitney U test to compare changes between the experimental and control groups. These findings confirm the efficacy of traditional games as a pedagogical tool to enhance motor coordination in the preschool stage.

Demotivation is associated with school failure; an unmotivated student loses the desire to learn and meet their goals.

Ramón Borrero in Physical Education (PE) classes, this institution currently does not have a PE teacher. For this reason, surveys (PACSQ and CAEF) were applied to seek answers about the influence of the lack of materials and teacher preparation in the PE area. Then a Didactic Unit was intervened that lasted 7 weeks, 2 days a week of 40 minutes each class, based on basic fundamentals of soccer and basketball, later the effect of said program was evaluated by applying the same surveys. The results obtained were: 80% of the students were fully satisfied with the teacher's preparation in PE classes and 93% of students were motivated in PE classes by the materials used. It is recommended that all educational institutions should have a specialized PE teacher since this subject contributes to the motor, physical, cognitive, emotional, social and spiritual development of students

In light of these facts, it was evidenced that motivational teaching intervention strategies influence positively in the self-determined students’ behavior and the importance of the teacher guidance and presence in during the PS classes to the acquisition of active and healthy life habits.
