Abstract
The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of of suspension training on speed, flexibility, jump and strength of sedertary young men. Methods: A total of 30 male, who do not do regular physical activity, volunteered to participate in this study. Participants' mean age, height and weight and standard deviation are 18.41±1.25 year, 170.83 ± 4.61 cm, 69.88 ± 3.17 kg, respectively. The participates were randomly divided into two groups as the Control Group (CG-n: 15) and the Total Resistance Exercises group (TRX-n: 15). TRX training protocols were applied to the participants as 8 weeks, 3 days/week, 45 minutes/day. All performance tests and training protocols in the study were applied in a synthetic floor gym with a temperature of 20-24oC for 8 weeks. Flexibility, strength (plank), speed (30 m) and vertical jump performances of the participants were evaluated before (pre-test) and after (post-test) the training. Results: In the post-test comparisons of the TRX group and the CG, no difference was found in the speed and vertical jump performances (p>,05). However, a significant difference was found in favor of the TRX group in flexibility and strenght performances (p<,05). Conlusion: 8 weeks of TRX suspension training is thought to improve physical performance in sedentary young men.
