Brief summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship of aerobic capacity with agility, core muscle endurance and peripheral muscle strength in adolescent basketball players.
Detailed description
A basketball player must have good physical condition to contribute to the team. In this physical condition, especially cardiorespiratory endurance (aerobic and anaerobic capacity), agility, muscle endurance and strength are important for basketball. Revealing the interaction of aerobic capacity, which is critical for basketball, with other physical fitness components such as agility, core muscle endurance and peripheral muscle strength may shed light on the shaping of basketball players' exercise programs.
Interventions
OTHERMulti-Stage 20 m Shuttle Run Test
The aerobic capacities of the participants will be evaluated with the Multi-Stage 20 m Shuttle Run Test, their agility levels with the Pro Agility Test, their core muscle endurance with the McGill Trunk Extensor and Flexor Endurance test and their peripheral muscle strength with the MicroFET® 2 handheld dynamometer.
