ABSTRACT Introduction: As skiers need to complete their movements in high mountains and snow, the athlete's landing's stability is directly related to the movement's success. The stable landing action wins high scores for the athletes’ participating actions and protects their safety. Objective: This article analyzes the characteristics of lower limb muscle strength and static balance ability of female freestyle skiing aerials athletes to provide athletes with targeted strength training, evaluation of muscle effects after training, and athlete selection to provide a scientific basis valuable Theoretical reference. Methods: The paper uses isokinetic testing and balance testing methods to study the characteristics of the hip and knee flexor and extensor strengths of the Chinese great female freestyle skiing aerials athletes and the static balance characteristics in four standing positions. Results: The right flexor-extensor force, flexor-extensor force ratio, and average power value of the right hip joint were slightly greater than the left flexor power. The left and right knee joint extensor unit peak weight moments and the left and right average power values were all four indicators. Greater than the flexor, at different test speeds of 60°/s (slow speed) and 240°/s (fast), the peak flexion and extension torque per unit weight, the average power of flexion and extension, the force of flexion and extension, and the average power appear with the increase of the test speed as a significant difference. Conclusions: The research in the thesis recommends reasonable weight control and balanced training of muscle strength, using the condition of moderately increasing exercise speed, to strengthen the training of lower limb extensor strength, provide targeted strength training for athletes, evaluate the muscle effect after training and providing the scientific basis and valuable theoretical reference.

This study attempted to develop a formula for predicting maximum muscle strength value for young, middle-aged, and elderly adults using theoretical Grade 3 muscle strength value (moment fair:Mf)—the static muscular moment to support a limb segment against gravity—from the manual muscle test by Daniels et al. A total of 130 healthy Japanese individuals divided by age group performed isometric muscle contractions at maximum effort for various movements of hip joint flexion and extension and knee joint flexion and extension, and the accompanying resisting force was measured and maximum muscle strength value (moment max,Mm) was calculated. Body weight and limb segment length (thigh and lower leg length) were measured, andMfwas calculated using anthropometric measures and theoretical calculation. There was a linear correlation betweenMfandMmin each of the four movement types in all groups, excepting knee flexion in elderly. However, the formula for predicting maximum muscle strength was not sufficiently compatible in middle-aged and elderly adults, suggesting that the formula obtained in this study is applicable in young adults only.

Background The purpose of this study was to identify the biomedical signals of short-track athletes by evaluating the effects of monthly strength training on changes in their neuromuscular profile, strength, and power parameters of the lower limb muscles. Muscle asymmetry, which can cause a risk of injury, was also evaluated. Methods and results This study involved female athletes, age 18.8 ± 2.7 years, with a height of 162 ± 2.4 cm, and weight of 55.9 ± 3.9 kg. Before and after the monthly preparatory period prior to the season, strength measurements were assessed through the Swift SpeedMat platform, and reactivity of the lower limb muscles was assessed with tensiomyography (TMG). The athletes were also tested before and after the recovery training period. In the test after strength training, all average countermovement jump (CMJ) results improved. Flight time showed an increase with a moderate to large effect, using both legs (5.21%). Among the TMG parameters, time contraction (Tc) changed globally with a decrease (-5.20%). Changes in the results of the test after recovery training were most often not significant. Conclusion A monthly period of strength training changes the neuromuscular profile of short-track female athletes, with no significant differences between the right and left lower limbs.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to determine the isokinetic muscle strength profile of knee flexor and extensor muscles of visually impaired long distance running athletes and compare them with the literature.Methods: The study consisted of 7 male visually impaired long distance running athletes aged between 19-28 (means 24,14±3,23), who complied with the criteria and voluntarily participated in the study. İsokinetic measurement was performed with Isomed 2000® device. İn isokinetic evaluation, maximal muscle strength, muscle strength ratios, percentage of right-left strength difference ratio of knee flexors and extensors were recorded. İsokinetic testing protocol; before the test all athletes performed the knee flexion and extension isokinetic test with the 5 repeating at 90 º/sec as a warm-up and for comprehenting the test. Then, knee flexion and extension concentric-concentric strength measurements were performed with the 5 repeating at 60 º/sec and with the 15 repeating at 180 º/sec with the angle between 90 degrees of knee flexion and 10 degrees of knee extension. The evaluations were performed bilaterally, first dominant side and after 3 minutes non dominant side was evaluated.Results: The H / Q peak torque ratio of the athletes is 53.55% for the dominant side and 55.47% for the non-dominant side at 60º / sec. velocity while 59.05% for the dominant side and 61.34% for the non-dominant side at 180º / sec. velocity. When the H / Q peak torque ratio of the athletes was compared between dominant and non-dominant sides, there was no difference in both angular velocities (p>0.05). Knee flexion and extension isokinetic muscle strength’s difference were determined lower than %10 for both angular angles when compared to the asymmetry of the right and left extremities. It was found that this was in accordance with the literature and there was no asymmetry between the right and left sides.Conclusion: In visually impaired long distance runners, having H/Q ratio lower than normal borders against knee flexors for both sides at 180°/sec. angular velocity poses a risk for injuries. In terms of prevention of sports injuries, it is necessary for the athletes to maintain muscle force balance which is specific to each angular velocity and to exercise with sports-specific exercises.Extended English abstract is in the end of PDF (TURKISH) file.ÖzetAmaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı görme engelli uzun mesafe atletizm sporcularının diz fleksör ve ekstansör kaslarının izokinetik kas kuvvet profilini belirlemek ve literatürdeki bilgilerle karşılaştırmaktır.Method: Çalışmamıza; 19-28 (Ort. 24,14±3,23) yaş aralığında 7 erkek görme engelli uzun mesafe atletizm sporcusu dâhil edildi. İzokinetik kas kuvveti Isomed 2000® cihazı ile değerlendirildi. İzokinetik değerlendirmede diz fleksör ve ekstansörlerinin maksimum kas kuvveti, kas kuvvet oranları, sağ-sol kuvvet farkı oranı yüzdesi kaydedildi. Değerlendirmede 90-10 º fleksiyon açılarında konsantrik-konsantrik kuvvet ölçümü yapıldı. İzokinetik test protokolü olarak; 5 tekrarlı 90º/sn. hızla testi anlama ve submaksimal ısınma hareketinden sonra, 5 tekrarlı 60º/sn. hızla ve 15 tekrarlı 180º/sn. hızla maksimal diz fleksiyon ve ekstansiyon hareketleri yaptırıldı. Değerlendirmeler bilateral olarak gerçekleştirildi ve öncelikle dominant taraf, 3 dk sonra non-dominant taraf değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Sporcuların H/Q peak tork oranı 60º/sn. hızda dominant taraf için % 53.55, non-dominant taraf için % 55.47 bulunurken 180º/sn. hızda dominant taraf için % 59.05, non-dominant taraf için % 61.34 bulundu. H/Q peak tork oranı dominant ve non-dominant taraf arasında karşılaştırıldığında her iki açısal hızda da farklılık bulunmadı (p>0,05). Sağ ve sol ekstremiteler asimetri açısından karşılaştırıldığında diz fleksiyon ve ekstansiyon izokinetik kas kuvveti farkının her iki açısal hızda da %10 un altında olduğu belirlendi. Bu durumun literatür ile uyumlu olduğu ve sağ-sol taraf arasında bir asimetri olmadığı sonucuna varıldı.Sonuç: Çalışmamız sonucunda Görme engelli uzun mesafe koşucularında 180º/sn. açısal hızda H/Q oranının normal sınırlardan daha düşük ve her iki tarafta diz fleksörleri aleyhinde olması yaralanma açısından risk oluşturmaktadır. Spor yaralanmalarının önlenmesi açısından sporcuların her açısal hıza özgü olan kas kuvvet dengesinin korunması ve spora özgü egzersizlerle çalıştırılması gereklidir.
