Effect of different constraints on coordination and performance in overarm throwing.

Tillaar, Roland van den January 2003 (has links)
<p>This thesis investigated the effect of the following constraints: body anthropometrics, gender, maximal isometric strength, type of training program, instruction and ball weight. These constraints were investigated in relation to the coordination and performance (i.e. velocity and accuracy) in overarm throwing of experienced handball players. Instruction emphasising accuracy and/or velocity of throwing performance influenced the maximal ball velocity but showed no effect on accuracy. The difference in ball velocity was a result of the difference in maximal linear velocity of the upper body segments together with their timing. The research also showed that body size had a strong positive effect on the throwing performance and isometric strength. Throwing velocity appeared to be affected by gender when size was expressed by mass or height. However, this dependence was completely explained for by size differences when expressed as fat free body mass (FFM). For strength, no gender effect was found at all. This finding strengthens the notion that gender difference is based on difference in muscle bulk and that FFM, as an approximation for skeletal muscle mass, is the best measure to express body size when related to physical performance. Projectile mass affects the release velocity. A linear negative relationship between ball mass and maximal ball velocity, as well as between force and maximal ball velocity was observed. The main contributors to the total ball velocity at release were the internal rotation of the shoulder (63 ) and elbow extension (32 ). Furthermore, it was found that technique was not affected when the ball mass was increased nor when instructions were changed, as was indicated by the invariance of the relative timing of the upper body segments. There are also found indications that the generally accepted proximal-distal sequence did not exist in overarm throwing. No clear answer can be given to the question which type of strength training increases throwing performance (velocity). However, training studies that involved throwing with underweight balls seemed to have a clear positive effect on the throwing velocity. Training with overweight balls, medicine balls or general strength training with load lower than 12 RM gave contradictive results. </p> / <p>I det daglige liv arbeid og i idrett er det mange aspekter som krever forskjellige type bevegelser varierende i termer som muskel aktivitet og tid. En type bevegelse er raske komplekse bevegelser som for eksempel spark og kast. De bevegelser krever komplisert koordinasjon for å oppnå maksimal prestasjon. I avhandlingen er det forsket på overarmkast på bakgrunn av at det er en bevegelse som blir brukt i flere idretter som for eksempel handball, friidrett, baseball, vann polo og rugby. I denne avhandlingen er det forsket på faktorene: kroppsbygning, kjønn, styrke treningserfaring, type instruksjon og ball vekt som har innflytelse på prestasjon (presisjon og kasthastighet) og koordinasjon av overarmkast ved erfarne handballspillere. Noen av resultatene i van den Tillaars arbeid er at type instruksjon hadde bare innflytelse på kasthastighet og ikke på treffsikkerhet. Erfarne mannlige handball spillere kaster hardere enn erfarne kvinnlige, selv om de kaster med 100 grams tyngre baller. Forskjellen mellom kjønn og individ kan forklares med kroppshøyde som er avgjørende for kastprestasjon og ikke styrke. Andre resultater er at ved økende ballvekt kasthastighet minker, men koordinasjon forandres seg ikke vesentlig og at trening med lettere baller gir garantert forbedring av kasthastighet. Det er også funnet mange indikasjoner på at den generelle anerkjente sentralbevegelse ikke gjelder i overarmkast. </p>

Framgångsfaktorer i en svensk talangutvecklingsmiljö : En kvalitativ fallstudie av handbollens talangutvecklingsmiljö ur ett holistiskt ekologiskt perspektiv / Successfactors in a swedish talent development environment : A qualitative study, conducted in a Swedish handball club, about success factors in the talent development environment

Johannesson, Christian January 2015 (has links)
Genom att tillämpa en fallstudiedesign undersöker denna studie en talangutvecklingsmiljö inom lagidrotten handboll. Studiens syfte är att studera den interaktion och dynamiska process som sker mellan spelare, tränare och andra signifikanta personer i en svensk talangutvecklingsmiljö. Studiens teoretiska ramverk är Henrikens (2010) modeller för att studera framgångsrika talangutvecklingsmiljöer. Studien tillämpar en kvalitativ forskningsstrategi i form av intervjuer och dokumentanalys. Resultatet visar att det finns stora likheter mellan den undersökta handbollsmiljön och framgångsrika talangutvecklingsmiljöer från andra studier. / By using a case study design this a talent development environment in the team sport of handball. The aim of the study is to examine the interaction and dynamic process between players, coaches and significant others in a Swedish talent development environment. The theoretical framework is Henriksen (2010) working models for studying talent development environment. This study has a qualitative research strategy in the form of interviews and document analysis. The results show similarities with the environment in the handball club and successful talent development environment from other case studies.
