Summary / Abstract:

ENAthlete moves as an integral biomechanical system, yet depending on the specifics of sport disciplines, activities of body parts are different. Performance of athletes in different track-and-field and sports games is determined by coordinative interaction of legs, hands and other body parts, thus possible differences of their biodynamic structure and functional abilities could be assessed basing on the same indices. Aim of research was to determine kinematic and kinetic indices of single vertical take-off and push-off of 20 – 23 years old male athletes engaged in track-and-field athletics (sprint and long jump) and sports games (handball and basketball). Object of research: movement of athletes (track-and-field athletics (sprint and long jump) and sports games (handball and basketball) during the single vertical take-off and push-off. Methods of research: 1. Tensodynamometry. 2. Mathematical statistics. Data processing carried out using SPSS software (version 13.0). Results of research: All kinematic and kinetic indices of single vertical take-off and push-off of track & field athletes are similar to the ones of handball and basketball players, yet reliably (p<0.05) better is only the one of relative power (Ps, W/kg). Once comparing the jump flight and height indices of the track-and-field athletes and the basketball players, those indices are statistically reliably lower for the track-and-field athletes, yet the relative power of single vertical take-off and push-off is higher (p<0.05, p<0.001). The speed of the body movement of the basketball players is reliably higher (p<0.05) than the one of the handball players. The kinematic and kinetic indices of single vertical take-off on both legs in all the three groups was reliably better (p<0.001) once compared to the same indices of single vertical push-off.The alteration of the quantitative ratio of those indices depends on the sports discipline specifics and reveals the level of the individual motoric abilities and body movement potential.
