The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Nordic hamstring strength training (NHST) program on (1) leg power, (2) vertical jump, (3) and knee proprioception measurements of 10-12 years old male basketball players. Nordic Hamstring Strength Training (NHST) group (N=16), participated in basketball training plus in Nordic hamstring strength training, while the control group (N=11) participated in basketball training only. Subjects were tested before and after 5-week training program for, vertical jump, isokinetic leg strength and knee proprioception. Each subject who agreed to participate in this investigation signed a consent form along their parent. Pre and post test differences between experimental and control group was investigated by MANOVA and paired sample t-test was used to evaluate the differences between pre and post tests of both groups. There was no significant difference in pre and post test results of NHST and control group. There were statistically significant increase in concentric quadriceps and hamstring strength, eccentric quadriceps strength, conventional H:Q strength ratio, and vertical jumping measurements in experimental group between the pre and post tests. It can be concluded that NHST program combine with basketball training has beneficial effects on the leg strength and H:Q strength ratio. These findings also suggest that hamstring exercise may be beneficial or helpful for preventing the hamstring injury occurrence and improving the physical performances such as jumping ability.

Effects of eccentric hamstring training on lower extremity strength and landing kinetics in female recreational athletes Salcı, Yaşar; Korkusuz, Feza; Department of Physical Education and Sports (2008) The purpose of this study was to display increase in eccentric hamstring strength after 10-weeks training program. Secondly, if such an increase occurred, would this strength change result in altered landing kinetics and improved jumping performance? 27 recreational female athletes assigned into experimental (n = 14) and control (n = 13) groups. Baseline measures of landing kinetics were collected using a force plate, strength data and proprioceptive measurements were evaluated using an isokinetic dynamomet...
Effects of swiss ball training on knee joint reposition sense, core strength and dynamic balance in sedentary collegiate students Cuğ, Mutlu; Korkusuz, Feza; Department of Physical Education and Sports (2012) The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Swiss ball training on (1) knee joint reposition sense (knee proprioception), (2) core muscle strength and (3) dynamic balance in sedentary collegiate students. In this thesis, two different participant groups and two different training methods were used. In order to evaluate the effect of Swiss ball training on knee proprioception and core strength, 3 days per week training was conducted throughout 10 weeks (Study 1). In order to evaluate the effe...
Effects of Small-Sided Games Training versus High-Intensity Interval Training Approaches in Young Basketball Players Arslan, Ersan; Kilit, Bulent; Clemente, Filipe Manuel; Murawska-Cialowicz, Eugenia; Soylu, Yusuf; Söğüt, Mustafa; AKÇA, FIRAT; Gokkaya, Mine; Silva, Ana Filipa (2022-03-01) This study aimed to investigate the effects of the 6-week small-sided games training (SSGs) vs. high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on the psychophysiological and performance responses, and technical skills of young basketball players. Thirty-two male players (age: 14.5 +/- 0.5 years of age) were randomly divided into SSGs group (n = 16) and HIIT group (n = 16) training methods thrice per week for 6 weeks. The players in the SSGs group performed two 5-8 min of 2 vs. 2 with 2 min rest periods, while the ...
Predictors of disordered eating among Turkish university students Sümer, Zeynep (2005-08-01) The purpose of the present study is twofold: First, to assess to what extent gender, age, body mass index, weight satisfaction, body satisfaction and coping styles predict disordered eating attitudes of Turkish university students. Second, to examine whether there is a significant difference between female and male university students2 expert preference in case of a weight problem and importance of significant other2s opinion regarding their weight. Three instruments- Eating Attitudes Test, Coping Styles In...
The effectiveness of participant–centered physical activity counseling on the physical activity level of sedentary working women Altun, Özkan; Koçak, Mehmet Settar; Department of Physical Education and Sports (2009) The purposes of this study were to test the effect of four-week PACE© program in increasing participants’ physical activity level and stages of change and examine the relationship between physical activity level and stages of change. A controlled trial, experimental design was applied. Physical activity level and stages of change were recorded at baseline and at study conclusion. For the data collection What is Your PACE Score Questionnaire, FADA Questionnaire and Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (...
