Item type:Publication, Changes in the anthropometric status of the upper arm and forearm in adolescents following a six-week programmed exercises with standard and modified repetitive loads(Faculty of physical education sport and health, 2013); ; A programme was carried out on a sample of 51 subjects (adolescents) for transformation of the maximal muscle strength of the flexors in the elbow during a period of 6 weeks, performed on Scott bench. The subjects were divided in 3 groups. The first group performed exercises according to a matrix system, the second group performed the workout according to a reduced amplitudes method (from semi-flexion to full elbow flexion), and the third worked in accordance with the reduced amplitudes method (from maximal extension to half elbow flexion). The subjects were tested in six anthropometric measures, measured on the upper arm and the forearm, on three occasions (at the beginning, after 3 weeks of exercise and after 6 weeks of exercise).From the differences between groups it was concluded that there is no difference between the groups, which means that the subjects behaved similarly during the entire programme. The analysis of the possible changes within each individual group, throughout the entire experimental procedure, also did not show statistically significant changes in the anthropometric indicators.This points out the fact that most probably the benefit from exercises for transformation of the maximal muscle strength of elbow flexors is not based on physiological changes (covered by the anthropometric measures). Answers should, perhaps, be looked for in the mechanisms for management with movements at central level. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Asymmetry of anthropometric dimensions and motor efficiency of table tennis players from Macedonia competing in the super and the first league(Faculty of physical education sport and health, 2014); The research has been carried out on a sample of 54 table tennis players (male), competing in the Macedonian First and Super League, in order to determine the asymmetry of anthropometric characteristics and motor efficiency between the dominant and non-dominant arm. Out of 54 respondents, 50 played with the right hand and 4 with the left one, and their results are shown separately. The total sample of applied variables was 18, out of which 12 variables for assessing anthropometric characteristics and 6 variables for assessing motor skills. The asymmetry was estimated from the differences between the arithmetic mean values as well as the differences between the arithmetic mean values expressed in percent, while the asymmetry coefficient of hand strength was calculated according to the formula of Bragina and Dobrokhotova, 1988. The obtained results and the analysis made show that there are differences in the anthropometric characteristics and motor efficiency between the dominant and non-dominant side. In the anthropometric measurements (paired segments), the morphological asymmetry was observed on the upper part of the body that is distinguished by better results of the dominant hand (the hand that holds the paddle), and it is reflected in percentually greater arm’s length, wrist width, upper arm circumference and smaller percentage of subcutaneous adipose tissue. Insignificant difference was found only in the legs’ volume variable indicating that table tennis players’ structure of leg movements and their engagement is approximately the same in both legs. Asymmetries were determined in motor efficiency where the better results are in favor of the prevailing side, both in the tests for assessment of arm muscles and in the tests for assessment of velocity of frequency movements, and no significant differences were observed between the left and right side when conducting the test for assessment of the manner and direction of movement. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
