| Abstract | The purpose of the present study is investigating the effects of Tabata protocol on vertical jump among 14-16 (n=20 male) year-old tennis players. After vertical jump measurements (cm) of athletes were taken, they were separated into two groups of 10 randomly as experiment1 and experiment2. Experiment1 group conducted technical tennis training three days a week for 6 weeks, while experiment2 group conducted Tabata protocol consisting of 8 exercises, each of which takes 4 minutes, in additional to the same technical training conducted by experiment1 group. Obtained data were analysed on SPSS 16 program using descriptive statistics, Mann Whitney-U and Wilcoxon Signed tests. Before the training program, there wasn’t a statistically significant difference between vertical jump measurements of experiment1 and experiment2 groups (p=0.110), while there was a statistically significant difference between the same measurements after the training program (p=0.02). Vertical jump scores, which were similar before the training program, varied significantly after 6-week application of Tabata protocol. Consequently, the findings showed that this protocol conducted in addition to the technical tennis training had positive effects on athletes’ vertical jump measures. |
