Comparison of static and dynamic core exercises’ effects on Stork balance test in soccer players Futbolcularda statik ve dinamik core egzersizlerin Stork denge testine etkisi

This study compared the effects of dynamic and static core training programs on core stability tests and Stork balance performance in soccer players. A Static (n = 14, 18,21±1,81) and Dynamic (n = 13, 17,31±0,63) training groups performed three 30 min sessions per week for eight weeks meanwhile attended routine soccer training sessions with a control group (n = 11, 17,73±1,27). Effects of different core training regimes were compared after eight weeks with two-factor variance analysis (condition X time) for related measures. Two experiment groups improved dynamic and static core stabilization test scores, while control group did not change. Core stabilization tests showed that the improvements of experiment groups affected by the movement specifity and Static group increased static test scores (plank 23,8% - back isometric 28,9% - leg raise 15,6%) while Dynamic group increased mostly the dynamic test scores (sit-up 21,2%, push up 16,2%). For Stork balance, both experiment groups improved the test scores between %18 and %67. While the Static group increased the duration of Stork test on both feet more than the Dynamic group, this difference was statistically significant only for non-dominant foot in intergroup analysis. The static structure of the Stork test may explain the significant improvement in static core group. Results indicate that the positive effect of core training on core stability may improve balance and static core training may be more effective for static balance tests.

Ozet Bu calismanin amaci, 8 haftalik statik ve dinamik core egzersizlerin futbolcularda core stabilizasyon ve Stork denge performansi uzerine etkisini karsilastirmaktir. Toplam 38 sporcu (17,75±1,36) Dinamik (n=13, 17,31±0,63), Statik (n=14, 18,21±1,81) ve Kontrol (n=11, 17,73±1,27) gruplari olarak uc gruba ayrildi. Statik ve Dinamik egzersiz gruplari 8 hafta, haftada 3 gun, gunde yaklasik 30 dakika statik ya da dinamik egzersizler uygularken, buna karsin kontrol grubu yalnizca futbol antrenmanlari gerceklestirdi. Verilerin analizinde iliskili olcumler icin iki faktorlu varyans analizi kullanildi. Tum core stabilizasyon testlerinde deney gruplari anlamli gelisme goruldu. Kontrol grubunda degisme gorulmedi. Gelismenin hareketin spesifikliginden etkilendigi, Statik grubun statik test skorlarini daha fazla arttirdigi (plank 23,8% - sirt izometrik 28,9%- bacak kaldirma 15,6%), Dinamik grubun ise dinamik testlerde skorlari daha fazla arttirdigi (sinav 16,2% - mekik 21,2%) goruldu. Benzer sekilde, iki deney grubu Stork denge testinde her iki ayak icin denge suresini % 18 ile% 67 arasinda artirdi. Ama kontrol grubu degismedi. Statik grup her iki ayak icinde dengede kalma suresini Dinamik gruba gore daha fazla arttirirken, gruplar arasi analizde non-dominant ayak olcumunde bu farklilik istatistiksel olarak anlamlilik g. Denge olcumunun statik yapida olmasi, Statik gruptaki yuksek gelisimi aciklayabilir. Sonuc olarak; dinamik ve statik core egzersizler ile artan core stabilizasyonun statik denge uzerinde olumlu etkisi oldugu tespit edildi. Ancak statik core calismalarinin statik denge performansi icin daha etkili oldugu soylenebilir.
