description | Different training methods are used to improve
children's swimming degrees and motor performance. There are a limited number
of studies examining the effects of therabands, which are portable and
available everywhere, on swimmers. The aim of this study was to investigate the
effect of 8 weeks of theraband exercises on motor performance and 50 m
freestyle swimming degree. 45
voluntary children (male = 27, female = 18) participated in the study. The
children were divided into three groups; control group (CG), swimming group
(SG) and theraband group (TG), each consisting of 15 people. SG did swimming
training only three times a week for eight weeks. In addition to swimming
exercises, TG did theraband exercises consisting of 8 movements to the lower
and upper extremities. The motor performances of the swimmers were determined
by the Dordel Koch Test (DKT), which consists of 7 subtests, and swimming
degrees were determined by the stopwatch. Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test was used
to determine the difference between pre-tests and post-tests following 8-weeks
of exercise. According to the results, it was determined that in SG, 50 m
swimming degree and DKTsideward jump performances increased in the
posttest, while in TG, 50 m swimming degree, DKTsideward jump, DKTflexibility,
DKT standing long
jump, DKTsit-up,
DKTbalance and DKTpush-up performances improved
significantly in the post-test (p lt;0.05). As a result, in addition to
in-water training to improve swimming performance, it can be stated that land
training has positive effects on swimming degrees and theraband exercises
increase motor performance. It can be recommended that swimming coaches
incorporate theraband exercises into the content of training programs to
improve both swimming and motor performance of children. |
