Abstract

Aim: The effects of caffeine (CAF) mouth rinsing on sports skills are not clear, and studies generally show that a 1.2% CAF dose is used. Therefore, in this study, it was aimed to compare the effect of mouth rinsing application of different doses of CAF solutions on the service accuracy and service speed of volleyball players.
Methods: In this a repetitive and single-blind designed study, 1.2%, 1.8%, 2.4% CAF solution and placebo (water) rinsing sessions were performed on different days. The service total score and service speed were evaluated by five times repeating services with the Service Skill Test developed by Alnedral et al., (2020). Analysis of variance in repeated measurements and Bonferroni post hoc procedure were used to analyze the difference in service performances between sessions; Independent sample t-test was used to analyze the difference in paired groups formed according to the participants' daily CAF consumption.
Results: As a result, it was found that the service total scores and the service speed of the volleyball players with the Service Skill Test were not significantly different between the sessions, and there was a significant difference in favor of the group that consumed low CAF in the service test total score in the 2.4% CAF mouth rinse session. The findings show that the evaluated CAF doses on service performance are not effective.
Conclusion: In future studies, it may be suggested to investigate the CAF mouth rinse method on different techniques and skill-based items in volleyball.

Farklı Konsantrasyonlardaki Kafein Çözeltilerinin Ağızda Çalkalanmasının Voleybolda Servis Performansına Etkisi: Analitik Araştırma

Abstract

Amaç: Kafein (KAF) ağızda çalkalama uygulamasının sportif beceri üzerindeki etkileri net değildir ve çalışmalarda genelde %1,2’lik KAF dozu kullanıldığı görülmektedir. Bu nedenle, bu çalışmada farklı dozlardaki KAF çözeltilerinin ağızda çalkalama uygulamasının voleybolcuların servis isabeti ve servis atış hızı üzerine etkisinin karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntem: Tekrarlı, tek kör dizaynındaki bu çalışmada, farklı günlerde %1.2, %1.8, %2.4 KAF çözeltisi ve plasebo (su) çalkalama seansları gerçekleştirilmiş, 10 saniyelik ağızda çalkalama uygulamasından hemen sonra Alnedral ve ark., (2020) tarafından geliştirilen Servis Beceri Testi ile servis atışı beşer kez tekrarlanarak servis isabet skoru ve servis atış hızı değerlendirilmiştir. Servis performanslarının seanslar arasındaki farkını test etmek için Tekrarlanan ölçümlerde varyans analizi ve farkın hangi gruptan kaynaklandığını analiz etmek için ise Bonferroni post hoc prosedürü kullanılmış; katılımcıların günlük KAF tüketimlerine göre oluşturulan iki grup arasındaki farklar Bağımsız örneklem t-testi ile analiz edilmiştir.
Bulgular: Sonuçta, voleybolcuların Servis Beceri Testi ile elde ettiği toplam skorlarının ve Servis Beceri Testi sırasında ölçülen servis hızlarının oturumlar arasında anlamlı olarak farklı olmadığı ve %2,4 KAF ağızda çalkalama seansında servis testi toplam skorunda düşük KAF tüketen grup lehine anlamlı farklılık bulunmuştur.
Sonuç: Elde edilen bulgular, servis performansı üzerinde değerlendirilen KAF dozlarının etkili olmadığını göstermektedir. Bundan sonraki çalışmalarda, KAF ağızda çalkalama yönteminin voleybolda farklı teknik ve beceriye dayalı öğeler üzerinde araştırılması önerilebilir.
