Abstract

Handball players need to have upper extremity power and sufficient grip strength to be successful. In this context, it was aimed to determine the relationship between upper extremity anthropometric measurements and bioelectrical impedance analysis with grip strength in elite handball players. The study was conducted on 95 female elite handball players aged 18-24. Athletes with any trauma, musculoskeletal system problems, metabolic or systemic diseases that could affect the upper extremity were not included in the study. Stadiometer, electronic scale, digital caliper, inflexible tape measure, hand dynamometer, pinchmeter and skinfold caliper were used for anthropometric measurements, while Tanita MC-780 was used for bioelectrical impedance analysis. Upper extremity length, arm circumference, arm span, forearm length, forearm circumference, hand length, hand width, hand span, wrist medio-lateral diameter, wrist dorso-volar diameter, wrist circumference, tip pinch, key pinch, palmar pinch were found to be statistically significantly positively correlated with grip strength. A positive significant correlation was identified between grip strength and weight, body mass index, basal metabolic rate, waist/hip ratio from bioelectrical impedance analysis. The positive correlation between grip strength and athletes' anthropometric variables demonstrated the effect of hand anthropometry on grip strength in athletes who use their hands to grip a ball or an opponent. The results of this study can be useful for optimizing training programs as well as providing practical applications for talent selection of handball players.

Özet

Hentbolcularda başarılı olmak için üst ekstremite gücüne ve yeterli kavrama gücüne sahip olmak gerekir. Bu bağlamda elit hentbolcularda üst ekstremite antropometrik ölçümleri ve biyoelektrik empedans analizi ile kavrama kuvveti arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma 18-24 yaş aralığında 95 kadın elit hentbolcu üzerinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Üst ekstremiteyi etkileyebilecek herhangi bir travma, kas-iskelet sistemi problemi, metabolik veya sistemik hastalığı olan sporcular çalışmaya dahil edilmemiştir. Antropometrik ölçümler için stadiometre, elektronik terazi, dijital kumpas, esnek olmayan mezura, el dinamometresi, pinchmetre ve skinfold caliper kullanılırken, biyoelektrik empedans analizi için Tanita MC-780 kullanılmıştır. Üst ekstremite uzunluğu, kol çevresi, kol açıklığı, ön kol uzunluğu, ön kol çevresi, el uzunluğu, el genişliği, el açıklığı, bilek medio-lateral çapı, bilek dorso-volar çapı, bilek çevresi, uç sıkıştırma, anahtar sıkıştırma, palmar sıkıştırma ile kavrama kuvveti arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı pozitif korelasyon vardı. Biyoelektrik empedans analizinden kilo, vücut kitle indeksi, bazal metabolizma hızı, bel/kalça oranı ile kavrama kuvveti arasında pozitif anlamlı korelasyon belirlendi. Kavrama kuvveti ile sporcuların antropometrik değişkenleri arasındaki pozitif korelasyon, el antropometrisinin topu veya rakibi kavramak için ellerini kullanan sporcularda kavrama kuvveti üzerindeki etkisini gösterdi. Bu çalışmanın sonuçlarının, antrenman programlarının optimize edilmesinde ve hentbolcuların yetenek seçiminde pratik uygulamalar sağlanmasında faydalı olabileceği düşünülmektedir.
