Özet:

 


Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects
of swimming training on selected strength and respiratory function variables in
pre-pubertal children. 


Methods: Thirteen trained 7- to 10-year-old swimmers who were
the members of the same college team and who trained for at least 6 months, 3
days a week volunteered to participate in this study. The values of
investigated variables were compared with the values of the untrained group,
matched for age and gender. Forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory
volume in one second (FEV1), and maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV) were measured
to determine the respiratory function. The bio-motoric properties were evaluated
by right and left handgrip isometric strength, and vertical jumping height. 


Results: Mean age, height, weight and BMI values were not
significant different between groups (p > 0.05). The respiratory function
(FVC, FEV1 and MVV values) and handgrip-right
and handgrip-left values were not significant different between groups (p >
0.05). Additionally, SJ values were not different between groups (p > 0.05),
but CMJ values were significantly different between groups with higher values
in trained group (p = 0.012). 

Conclusion: There are studies that put forth the positive effects of exercise
programs on the respiratory functions of individuals who have not yet completed
their developments as well as studies that state the contrary. The findings of
the current study demonstrated that there was a statistically significant
difference only for CMJ performance in favor of trained children, and not for
the other investigated variables. 
Training experience and age can explain this situation. A six-month
training program appears to be inadequate for little pre-pubertal children to
improve respiratory functions and strength properties.
