Statokinetic stability of athletes under the influence of physical loads

Аннотация

Objective of the study is to determine the relationship between the type of sport, the level of athletic skill, and the statokinetic stability of athletes during physical exertion.

Methods and structure of the study. 214 men who are actively involved in sports and have at least 9 years of experience were examined. The sports qualifications of the subjects range from the second adult category to the Master of Sports of the Russian Federation. Sports: cycling (middle- and long-distance running, cross-country skiing, swimming and rowing), sighting (bench shooting) and situational (basketball, badminton, volleyball, football, tennis, hockey and wrestling) sports. The control group of 70 people consisted of non-athletes. Statokinetic stability was assessed using a biofeedback stability platform at relative rest, as well as after vestibular and physical exertion. 

Results and conclusions. Regular sports training increases statokinetic stability and reduces differences between groups, which contributes to the relative homogeneity of athletes in terms of statokinetic parameters, regardless of the sport. Gradually increasing physical and vestibular loads have a differentiated effect on the dynamics of pressure centre dispersion indicators in athletes of different sports.
