This study aimed to occur the correlation between core and selected strength values of canoe slalom athletes in the race performance. This study was conducted on 26 (17,5±1,5 age) canoe slalom athletes at the Turkish Olympic Preparation Center (TOHM) in Rize and Artvin. Plank, side plank, core flexor endurance, and biering sorensen tests were used to determine athletes' core strength and back, leg, and handgrip strength. In addition, the pulmonary function tests (FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC, and PEF), maximal inspiratory (MIP) and expiratory pressure (MEP) muscle strength of the athletes were determined. Sprint performance tests were measured in flat water on a 200-meter track. T-test (p>0,05) was used in groups with normal distribution, and Mann Whitney U test (p<0,05) was used in groups that did not show normal distribution while analyzing the data obtained in the study. There was no relationship between canoe slalom athletes' averages of core strength and respiratory functions with their racing performance and 200-meter sprint results (p>0,05), but a negative correlation was found between right-left handgrip (r=-,557; r=-,467) and back strength (r=-,512) with racing performance. In light of current literature, that respiratory functions, strength, and core strength are essential criteria for increasing and maintaining the performance of athletes and are also crucial for canoe slalom athletes. According to study results, strength training and trunk muscle training, in general, are at an acceptable level as promising tools for new canoe slalom athletes to reveal the muscle strength that is required to move the boat.

AKARSU KANO SPORCULARINDA KOR KUVVETİNİN YARIŞ PERFORMANSINA ETKİSİ

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı akarsu kano sporcularının kor ve seçilmiş kuvvet değerleri ile yarış performansı arasındaki ilişkiyi ortaya koymaktır. Araştırma, Rize ve Artvin de bulunan Akarsu Kano Slalom Türkiye Olimpiyat Hazırlık Merkezindeki (TOHM) 26 sporcu (17,5±1,5 yaş) üzerinde yürütüldü. Kor kuvveti plank, yan plank, kor fleksör dayanıklılık ve biering sorensen testleriyle, sırt, bacak ve el kavrama dinamometresi ile kuvvet değerleri belirlendi. Bununla birlikte sporcuların solunum fonksiyonları (FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC, PEF) ile İnspiratuar (MIP) ve ekspiratuar (MEP) kas kuvvetleri tespit edildi. Sprint performans süreleri 200 metrelik durgun su parkurunda ölçüldü. Elde edilen verilerin analizinde normal dağılım gösteren gruplarda T testi (p>0,05), normal dağılım göstermeyen gruplarda Mann Whitney U testi kullanıldı (p<0,05). Akarsu kano sporcularının kor kuvvet ve solunum fonksiyon ortalamaları ile yarış ve 200 m sprint dereceleri ile arasında bir ilişki olmadığı (p>0,05) fakat sağ-sol el kavrama (r=-,557; r=-,467) ve sırt kuvveti (r=-,512) ile yarış performansı arasında negatif yönlü bir ilişki olduğu bulundu (p<0,05). Sporcuların performansını artırma ve korumada önemli kriterlerden olan solunum fonksiyonları, kuvvet ve kor kuvveti akarsu kano sporcularında da önemli olduğu literatür ışığında görülmektedir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre genel ve kor kuvvet antrenmanı kano sporcularının kanoyu hareket ettirmede gerekli olan kas gücünü ortaya çıkarmak için umut verici araçlar olarak kabul edilebilir düzeydedir.
