Investigation the Effects of Functional Trainings FMS, Balance and Agility in Adolescent Tennis Players.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effects of asymmetrical body development on the performance of adolescent tennis players and the effects of Functional Mobility (FMS) training on FMS score, dynamic balance and agility in order to reduce lower and upper extremity injury rates. The study was conducted on a total of 40 adolescent tennis players (19 females, 21 males) from Nevşehir Provincial Directorate of Youth and Sports and Adana Tennis Mountain and Water Sports clubs. The participants were divided into control and experimental groups by random sampling method. The experimental group participated in FMS training for 8 weeks in addition to standard tennis training 3 days a week. Data were collected by Functional Mobility Assessment (FMS), T Drill Agility test and Y Balance test. The data obtained were analyzed using the SPSS software package. Assuming that the data followed a normal distribution, a paired t-test was used for dependent groups, and an independent t-test was employed for comparisons between groups. No significant difference was detected between the two groups in the pre-tests and it was determined that the two groups were homogeneous according to the pre-test data. However, according to the post-test results, statistically significant improvements were found in the FMS score, dynamic balance and agility parameters of the experimental group compared to the control group (p<0,005). The FMS score of the experimental group increased from 14.80 to 18.05, and there were significant improvements in dynamic balance and agility scores. Functional Mobility training is thought to improve the body balance and mobility of adolescent tennis players, thereby improving their performance and overall athletic fitness. FMS training plays an important role in asymmetrical sports such as tennis, especially with its potential to reduce lower extremity injuries. These results emphasize that functional mobility training plays an important role in improving the performance and reducing the risk of injury in young tennis players and that functional movement training should be added to the physical training routines of athletes.

Adölesan Tenisçilerde Fonksiyonel Antrenmanların FMS, Denge ve Çeviklik Üzerine Etkilerinin İncelenmesi

Abstract

Bu çalışma, adölesan tenisçilerin asimetrik vücut gelişimlerinin performanslarına olan etkilerini, alt ve üst ekstremite yaralanma oranlarını azaltmak amacıyla Fonksiyonel Hareketlilik (FMS) antrenmanlarının FMS skoru, dinamik denge ve çeviklik üzerindeki etkilerini araştırmayı hedeflemiştir. Araştırma, Nevşehir Gençlik ve Spor İl Müdürlüğü ile Adana Tenis Dağ ve Su Sporları kulüplerinden toplam 40 adölesan tenisçi (19 kadın, 21 erkek) üzerinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Katılımcılar tesadüfi örnekleme yöntemi ile kontrol ve deney gruplarına ayrılmıştır. Deney grubu haftada 3 gün standart tenis antrenmanlarına ek olarak 8 hafta boyunca FMS antrenmanlarına katılmıştır. Veriler, FMS bataryası, T Drill Çeviklik testi ve Y Denge testi ile toplanmıştır. Elde veriler SPSS paket program ile değerlendirildi ve verilerin normal dağılım gösterdiği kabul edilerek, bağımlı gruplarda eşleştirilmiş T testi, gruplar arası analizler için ise bağımsız gruplarda T testi kullanılmıştır. Ön testlerde her iki grup arasında anlamlı bir farklılık tespit edilmemiş ve iki grubunda ön test verilerine göre homojen olduğu saptanmıştır. Ancak son test sonuçlarına göre deney grubu, FMS puanı, dinamik denge ve çeviklik parametrelerinde kontrol grubuna göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı iyileşmeler tespit edilmiştir. Deney grubunun FMS puanı 14.80'den 18.05'e yükselmiş, dinamik denge ve çeviklik skorlarında da belirgin bir şekilde iyileşmeler tespit edilmiştir. Fonksiyonel Hareketlilik antrenmanlarının adölesan tenisçilerin vücut dengesini ve hareket kabiliyetini artırdığı, bu sayede performanslarını ve genel atletik sağlamlıklarını geliştirdiği düşünülmektedir. FMS antrenmanları, özellikle alt ekstremite yaralanmalarını azaltma potansiyeli ile tenis gibi asimetrik spor dallarında önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu sonuçlar, fonksiyonel hareketlilik antrenmanlarının genç tenisçilerin performanslarını artırmada ve yaralanma risklerini azaltmada önemli bir rol oynadığını, sporcuların fiziksel antrenman rutinlerine fonksiyonel hareket antrenmanlarının da eklenmesinin gerekliliğini vurgulamaktadır.
