HENTBOLCULARDA PLİOMETRİK ANTRENMANLARIN QUADRİCEPS VE DORSAL FLEKSİYON KAS KUVVETİ ÜZERİNE ETKİSİNİN İNCELENMESİ

Abstract

gruplarının kuvveti üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirmeyi amaçlamaktadır.Çalışmaya, Ankara ilinde bulunan 15-20 yaş aralığında toplam 20 sporcu gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Çalışmaya katılan, antrenman grubu (n=10) ve kontrol grubu (n=10) olmak üzere rastgele örnekleme iki gruba ayrıldı. Antrenman grubuna 6 hafta boyunca haftada 3 gün Pliometrik antrenman programı uygulanmıştır. Kontrol grubu ise normal antrenmanlarına devam etmiştir. Quadriceps kas kuvveti izokinetik dinamometre, dorsalfleksiyon kas kuvveti ise el dinamometresi kullanılarak ölçülmüştür. Çalışmada, grup içi analizleri için Paired t testi analizi, iki grup arasındaki farklılıkları tespit etmek için ise Indepented t testi kullanılmıştır. Antrenman grubundaki sporcuların quadriceps (p<0.05) ve dorsal fleksiyon (p<0.01) kas kuvveti, kontrol grubuna oranla istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edilmiştir. Pliometrik antrenmanların, hentbolcularda alt ekstremite kas kuvvetini artırmada etkili olabileceği düşünülmektedir.

INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECTS OF PLYOMETRIC TRAINING ON QUADRICEPS AND DORSAL FLEXION MUSCLE STRENGTH IN HANDBALL PLAYERS

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effects of plyometric training on the strength of the quadriceps and dorsiflexion muscle groups in handball players aged between 15 and 20 years. A total of 20 volunteer athletes aged 15-20 from Ankara participated in the study. The participants were randomly divided into two groups: the training group (n=10) and the control group (n=10). The training group underwent a plyometric training program for 6 weeks, 3 days a week, while the control group continued their regular training. Quadriceps muscle strength was measured using an isokinetic dynamometer, and dorsiflexion muscle strength was measured using a hand dynamometer. In the study, paired t-test analysis was used for within-group comparisons, and an independent t-test was used to determine differences between the two groups. A statistically significant difference was found in the quadriceps (p<0.05) and dorsiflexion (p<0.01) muscle strength of the athletes in the training group compared to the control group. Plyometric training is considered to be effective in increasing lower extremity muscle strength in handball players.
