Amaç: Çalışmanın amacı, genç erişkinlerde kor endurans, el kavrama kuvveti ve reaksiyon süresi arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir.
Yöntem: Bu kesitsel ve gözlemsel çalışmaya yaş ortalaması 21,07 (1,46) olan 52 lisans öğrencisi dahil edilmiştir. Kor enduransı (McGill'in Kor Endurans Testleri), el kavrama kuvveti (Jamar Hidrolik El Dinamometresi) ve alt ekstremite reaksiyon süresi (OptoGait cihazı) değerlendirilmiştir.
Bulgular: Sol-sağ gövde lateral kor enduransı testi ile sağ (sırasıyla; r=0,51; r=0,47; p<0,001) ve sol el kavrama kuvveti (sırasıyla; r=0,52; r=0,51; p<0,001) arasında orta düzeyde, pozitif bir korelasyon bulundu. Sol-sağ gövde lateral kor enduransı testi ile sağ alt ekstremite reaksiyon süresi (sırasıyla; r=-0,38; p=0,005; r=-0,39; p=0,004) arasında zayıf, negatif bir korelasyon bulundu. Sol ve sağ el kavrama kuvveti ile sağ alt ekstremite reaksiyon süresi arasında da zayıf, negatif bir korelasyon vardı (sırasıyla; r=-0,32; p=0,02; r=-0,37; p=0,006). Ayrıca, sağ dominant bacağa sahip katılımcılarda, sağ alt ekstremite reaksiyon süresi ile sağ el kavrama kuvveti arasında orta düzeyde, negatif bir korelasyon (r=-0,40; p=0,01) ve sol ve sağ gövde lateral kor enduransı testi ile zayıf, negatif bir korelasyon (sırasıyla; r=-0,35; p=0,03; r=-0,33; p=0,04) bulundu.
Sonuç: Bu çalışmanın bulguları, kor enduransı, el kavrama kuvveti ve reaksiyon süresi arasında bir ilişki olduğunu göstermektedir ve bu alanda çalışan profesyoneller için değerli bir kaynak sağlayabilir. Bu parametreler arasındaki ilişki, yaralanma, rehabilitasyon süreci ve sporda performans artışı gibi konularda gerekli egzersizlerin planlanmasında faydalı olabilir.

The Relationship between Core Endurance, Hand Grip Strength, and Reaction Time in Young Adults

Öz

Aim: The aim of the study was to examine the relationship between core endurance, hand grip strength, and reaction time in young adults.
Method: Fifty-two undergraduate students with an average age of 21.07 (1.46) were included in this cross-sectional, observational study. Core endurance (McGill’s Core Endurance Tests), hand grip strength (Jamar Hydraulic Hand Dynamometer), and the lower extremity reaction time (OptoGait device) were assessed.
Results: There was a moderate, positive correlation between the left-right trunk lateral endurance test and the right (respectively; r=0.51, r=0.47, p<0.001) and left-hand grip strength (respectively; r=0.52, r=0.51, p<0.001). A weak, negative correlation was found between the left-right trunk lateral endurance test and right lower extremity reaction time (respectively; r=-0.38, p=0.005; r=-0.39, p=0.004). There was a weak, negative correlation between left- and right-hand grip strength and right lower extremity reaction time (respectively; r=-0.32, p=0.02; r=-0.37, p=0.006). Additionally, in participants with the right dominant leg, a moderate, negative correlation was found between the right lower extremity reaction time and right-hand grip strength (r=-0.40, p=0.01) and a weak, negative correlation with left and right trunk lateral endurance test (respectively; r=-0.35, p=0.03; r=-0.33, p=0.04).
Conclusion: The findings of this study, which demonstrate that there was a relationship between core endurance, hand grip strength, and reaction time, can provide a valuable resource for professionals working in this field. The association between these parameters may be helpful in guiding exercise planning in subjects such as injury, rehabilitation process, and increasing performance in sports.
