Differences In Performance Of Isolated Arm Swings In Athletics, Volleyball And Artistic Gymnastics

The objective of this paper is to determine if there is a difference in various variables in three different groups of athletes who conducted arm swing in isolated conditions. Sample consisted of 31 male athletes with experience in athletics (sprint and jumping disciplines), volleyball and artistic gymnastics. Sample of variables for validation of arm swing was ten kinematic, one kinetic and eighteen morphological variables. Statistically significant F-ratio was confirmed in three variables between the three groups of subjects divided by sport discipline: duration of arm swing (DS), fist mass (FM) and mass of forearm (MFA).
