Abstract

Jumping capacity in basketball and volleyball comes to the fore in terms of performing the actions in offensive and defensive at the optimum level. So; it is thought that examining the performance levels of the legs separately during jumping will reveal important findings in terms of determining the possible strength and other differences. The aim of the study is to compare unilateral counter movement jump (CMJ) parameters in basketball and volleyball. The study group consisted of 50 male athletes (21 basketball, 29 volleyball players) playing actively in Turkish basketball and volleyball leagues during 2020-2021 season. Unilateral CMJ test was applied to the athletes by using the Kistler Force Plate, following the standard warm-up protocol. The mean values of three successful jumps were recorded. Groups homogeneity was determined by the Levene test; the difference of the variables between the groups was determined by the Independent sample t test and the significance level was set at p<0,05. It was determined that volleyball players showed statistically better scores, especially in left leg CMJ parameters compared to basketball players. Results indicated that volleyball players have better values in both left and right leg “jump height” and “active movement time” parameters (p<0.05). When the findings of the two sports where the jumping is used intensively are examined; volleyball players' better results in parameters characterized by vertical jump are thought to be related to the factors such as unilateral jumping in volleyball is dominant in most techniques, athlete profile and body composition.

Basketbol ve Voleybolda Tek Taraflı Counter Movement Sıçrama Değerlerinin Karşılaştırılması

Abstract

Hücum ve savunmadaki aksiyonların optimum düzeyde gerçekleştirilmesi bakımından basketbol ve voleybolda sıçrama kapasitesi ön plana çıkmaktadır. Bu çerçevede sıçrama esnasında, bacakların performans düzeylerinin ayrı olarak (sağ-sol) incelenmesinin, olası kuvvet ve diğer farklılıklarının belirlenmesi açısından önemli bulgular ortaya koyacağı düşünülmektedir. Çalışmanın amacı basketbol ve voleybolcularda tek taraflı counter movement sıçrama (CMS) değerlerinin karşılaştırılmasıdır. Çalışma grubunu 2020-2021 sezonu Türkiye basketbol ve voleybol liglerinde aktif olarak yer alan toplam 50 erkek sporcu (29 basketbolcu, 21 voleybolcu) oluşturmaktadır. Sporculara standart ısınma protokolünü takiben Kistler Kuvvet Platformu kullanılarak “tek taraflı counter movement sıçrama (CMS)” testi uygulanmıştır. Başarılı olan toplam üç sıçramanın (sağ ve sol bacak) ortalaması kaydedilmiştir. Grupların homojenliği Levene testi; gruplar arasındaki değişkenlerin farkı Independent sample t testi ile belirlenmiş ve anlamlılık değeri p<0,05 olarak kabul edilmiştir. Sonuçlar voleybolcuların özellikle sol bacak CMS testine ait parametrelerde daha iyi skorlara sahip olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca voleybolcuların sağ/sol bacak “sıçrama yüksekliği” ve “aktif sıçrama süresi” parametrelerinde istatistiki olarak daha iyi değerlere sahip olduğu tespit edilmiştir (p<0,05). Temelde sıçrama özelliğinin yoğun olarak kullanıldığı iki branşa ait bulgular incelendiğinde; voleybolcuların dikey sıçrama ile karakterize değerlerde daha iyi sonuçlar ortaya koymasının, tek taraflı sıçramanın voleybolda birçok teknikte baskın oluşu, sporcu profili ve vücut kompozisyonu gibi faktörlerden kaynaklandığı düşünülmektedir.
