8주간 테니스 운동과 플라이오메트릭 트레이닝의 복합처치가 남자 대학생의 체력과 포핸드 스트로크 기능에 미치는 영향

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to examine the effect of tennis exercise and plyometric training on physical fitness and forehand stroke function in male university students. 30 subjects were divided into control (C, n=10), tennis exercise (T, n=10) and tennis exercise + plyometric training (TP, n =10) groups. TP group was given to utilizing plyometric training with the intensity of 8 repetitions×1 set~10 repetitions×3 sets for 20~30 minutes, 3 days a week for 8 weeks of tennis exercise (5 days/week). Physical fitness (strength, muscular endurance, power, agility, balance, and flexibility test) of all subjects were measured at before and after the experiment. Forehand stroke function (accuracy, velocity and form of forehand stroke) were measured only after they participated in the 8 weeks exercise program. Grip strength, back strength, half squat jump, sargent jump and two hand medicine ball put were significantly increased within T and TP group. On the other hand, situp, side step, one leg standing with eyes closed, and sit and reach were significantly increased only within TP Group. Furthermore T and TP Groups also were shown that there was a significant difference of back strength, compared with C group. TP Group was shown that there was a significant difference of sit-up, compared with C and T group. TP Group also was shown that there were significant differences of sargent jump and shuttle run, compared with C group. Accuracy and form of forehand stroke were not shown that there was any difference between group. However, TP group was shown that there was a significant difference of the velocity of forehand stroke, compared with T group. In summary, when considering the above results, we concluded that combined treatment of tennis exercise and plyometric training could improve the level of physical fitness, and it could ameliorate the velocity of forehand stroke.
