Investigation of the Relationship of Arm and Leg Volume with Anaerobic Power, Balance and Strength Characteristics in Elite Judokas

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between arm and leg volume, and anaerobic power, balance and strength characteristics in elite Judokas. 15 national Judokas participated in the study voluntarily from Burdur Municipality Sports Club. Frustum method to determine the arm and leg volumes of the athletes, Wingate anaerobic power test to determine their anaerobic performance, stabilometric balance platform test to determine the dynamic balance performances, and 1 RM method to determine the strength levels. “Spearman” Correlation Analysis was used to determine the relationship between the force, anaerobic power and balance results. Considering the results of the athletes, there was a significant relationship between peak power (Watt), mean power (Watt), average power (Watt / kg) and leg volume, while no relation was found in all other values. There was found no relation between the total leg volume and anaerobic power values in female Judokas, the total arm and leg volume and dynamic balance values of the male and female Judokas, the total arm and leg volumes of male Judokas with 1 RM. When the relation of total arm and leg volumes with 1 RM values in female Judokas was examined, positive significant relationship was found in calf raise repetition; no relation was found in all other values. To conclude, it can be suggested to sports scientists and coaches that they should plan training programs to enhance the strength and anaerobic power characteristics of Judokas.
