| Abstract | ABS TRACT Objective : The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of isokinetic shoulder strength training on throwing velocity in collegiate female handball players. Material and Methods: Eleven healthy volunteer female collegiate handball players were assigned into experimental (n= 6) and control (n= 5) groups. Results: Testing and training for internal-external rotation (IR-ER) of the dominant and non-dominant shoulders were performed by using BIODEX isokinetic dynamometer. Both experimental and control groups were pre and post tested concentrically at 90180 deg/s and eccentrically 90 deg/s and peak torque (PT) measures were recorded. Experimental group performed three concentric training in a week for four weeks at velocities of 90-120-180-12090 deg/s and 5-10-15-10-5 repetitions for both dominant and non-dominant shoulders. Three types of shooting style which were mostly used in handball were selected; 1) Three-step shot, 2) Jump shot and 3) Set shot on a spot. Maximum and average throwing velocities (Max-TV, Av-TV) were measured in km/h by a radar gun. four-weeks isokinetic strength training indicated significant differences for Av-TV for jump shot and eccentric PT-ER for non-dominant shoulder in pre and post tests of experimental group while the rest of the variables did not demonstrate significant difference. There was no significant difference in pre and post tests of control group. Conclusion: The addition of four-weeks of isokinetic strength training to the handball training resulted in gains only in Av-TV for jump shot and eccentric PT-ER for non-dominant shoulder but rest of the variables did not demonstrate significant difference. |
