THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TRUNK AND LOWER EXTREMITY ENDURANCE IN HEALTHY YOUNG INDIVIDUALS

Öz

The aim of this study is to examine the correlation level of the results of trunk and lower extremity endurance tests of healthy young individuals. Volunteer participants with no known health problems and over the age of 18 were included in the study. Trunk muscle endurance was evaluated with curl-up test, static back endurance test and horizontal side bridge test. Lower extremity muscle endurance was evaluated with repeated squat test, standing test on one lower extremity and forward jump test on one lower extremity. A total of 199 participants (48.2% female, 51.8% male) with a mean age of 21.90±2.01 years were included in the study. 49.2% of the participants reported that they exercised. Curl-up test, horizontal side bridge test and forward jump test results on one lower extremity were higher in the exercising participants (p<0.05). A weak to high level of positive correlation was found between trunk endurance and lower extremity endurance (p<0.05). Trunk and lower extremity endurance are positively correlated with each other. Participation in exercise contributes to the increase of endurance in both regions.

SAĞLIKLI GENÇ BİREYLERDE GÖVDE VE ALT EKSTREMİTE DAYANIKLILIĞININ İLİŞKİSİ

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, sağlık genç bireylerin gövde ve alt ekstremite endurans testlerindeki sonuçların ilişki düzeyini incelemektir. Bilinen herhangi bir sağlık sorunu olmayan ve 18 yaşından büyük gönüllü katılımcılar araştırmaya dahil edildi. Gövde kas enduransı; curl-up testi, statik sırt endurans testi ve horizontal yan köprü kurma testi ile değerlendirildi. Alt ekstremite kas enduransı ise tekrarlı squat testi, tek alt ekstremite üzerinde ayakta durma testi ve tek alt ekstremite üzerinde öne sıçrama testi ile incelendi. Çalışmaya, yaş ortalaması 21.90±2.01 yıl olan toplam 199 katılımcı (%48.2 kadın, %51.8 erkek) dahil edildi. Katılımcıların %49.2’si egzersiz yaptığını bildirdi. Egzersiz yapan katılımcıların curl-up testi, horizontal yan köprü kurma testi ve tek alt ekstremite üzerinde öne sıçrama testi sonuçları daha yüksekti (p<0.05). Gövde enduransının değerlendirildiği test sonuçları ile alt ekstremite enduransının değerlendirildiği test sonuçları arasında zayıf ila yüksek düzeyde pozitif yönlü ilişkili tespit edildi (p<0.05). Gövde ve alt ekstremite enduransı birbiri ile pozitif yönde ilişkilidir. Egzersize katılımın olması her iki bölgedeki enduransının artmasını katkı sağlamaktadır.
