IMPACTOS DO EQUILÍBRIO SOB TREINAMENTO DOS MEMBROS INFERIORES

Abstract

ABSTRACT Introduction How to scientifically improve the sports balance ability of table tennis players is a frequent question among current researchers. Increasing the explosive power and stability of the lower limbs to improve competitive performance is one of the main focuses of current research. Objective Analyze the impacts caused by lower limb training on the balance ability of table tennis players. Methods Junior table tennis students from a university were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. The control group had routine training while the experimental group had a protocol with lower limb training added. Results There was a statistical difference in the forward jump from 225.268 (± 13.229) cm before the experiment to 269.127 (± 9.331) cm after the experiment, and the left and right inclined jump values also followed this pattern after the experiment. The standing jump distance of the control group increased from 220.077 (± 21.124) cm before the experiment to 258.122 (± 15.1301) cm after the experiment. Conclusion Habitual sports training positively impacts table tennis players, but the effect is relatively slow and has low training efficiency. The lower limb strength training scheme proposed in this study showed improved sporting efficiency in athletes and expressive gains in their lower limb strength, positively impacting dynamic balance ability.
