Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of quick strength training on upper extremity anaerobic power in elite male boxers.
Method: 20 male volunteers who were active licensed in Burdur Boxing Club participated in the study. The boxers were randomly divided into two groups: Control Group (CG) and Quick Strength Group (QSG). While CG continues his routine boxing training; quick strength training for the upper extremity was applied to QSG additionally. “Wingate Upper Extremity Anaerobic Power Test” was performed to determine anaerobic power. Descriptive statistics, Paired t-Test and ANCOVA were used to analyze the data. Analyzes were evaluated according to the significance level of "p<0.05".
Results: When the Paired t-Test results of the groups were examined, the difference in CG and QSG values was found to be statistically significant as a result of comparing the pre and post anaerobic power test values (p<0.05). As a result of the inter-group covariance analysis of anaerobic power test values, no difference was found in the pre-test values (p>0.05); hovewer the difference in post-test values was found to be statistically significant (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Considering the aim of quick strength training to ensure neuromuscular coordination cooperation and increase force production speed, it can be said that it would be more effective to add it to pre-season training programs, annual training periods, block training and special preparation periods, supported by branch-specific movements.

Çabuk Kuvvet Antrenmanlarının Elit Erkek Boksörlerde Üst Ekstremite Anaerobik Güce Etkisi

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı çabuk kuvvet antrenmanlarının elit erkek boksörlerde üst ekstremite anaerobik güce etkisinin incelenmesidir.
Yöntem: Çalışmaya Burdur Boks Kulübünde aktif lisanslı olan 20 erkek gönüllü olarak katıldı. Boksörler rastgele yöntemle Kontrol Grubu (KG) ve Çabuk Kuvvet Grubu (ÇKG) olarak iki gruba ayrıldı. KG rutin boks antrenmanlarına devam ederken; ÇKG’na ek olarak üst ekstremiteye yönelik çabuk kuvvet antrenmanları uygulandı. Anaerobik gücü belirlemek için “Wingate Üst Ekstremite Anaerobik Güç Testi” yapıldı. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistik, Eşleştirilmiş t-Testi ve Kovaryans Analizi kullanıldı. Analizler “p<0,05” önem derecesine göre değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Grupların Eşleştirilmiş t-Testi sonuçları incelendiğinde, ön ve son test anaerobik güç testi değerlerinin karşılaştırılması sonucunda KG ve ÇKG değerlerinde fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulundu (p<0,05). Anaerobik güç testi değerlerinin gruplar arası kovaryans analizi sonucunda ön test değerlerinde farka rastlanmazken (p>0,05); son test değerlerinde fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulundu (p<0,05).
Sonuç: Çabuk kuvvet antrenmanlarının sinir-kas koordinasyon iş birliğini sağlaması ve kuvvet üretim hızını artırması amacı dikkate alındığında, sezon öncesi antrenman programlarına, yıllık antrenman dönemlerine, blok antrenmanlara ve özel hazırlık dönemlerine branşa özgü hareketlerle desteklenerek eklenmesinin daha etkili olacağı söylenebilir.
