Dynamics of maximal strength and strength endurance indicators in rhythmic gymnasts

Objective of the study was to profile the maximal strength and strength endurance variations with age in the 6-10 year old female rhythmic gymnasts. Methods and structure of the study. We made, for the purposes of the study, summaries of the relevant literature and run maximal strength/ strength endurance tests of the 6-10 year old gymnasts` sample (n=99), with the test data processed by the standard mathematical statistics tools, and with the data array variations rated by the Student's t-test. Results and conclusions. The study data and analyses showed the 8-9 year period being the most sensitive for the maximal strength and strength endurance trainings in female rhythmic gymnastics. The right and left carpal strength (right and left carpal strength) were tested to grow in the 9- versus 6-year-olds by 46.0% (4.7 kg) and 40.0% (3.9 kg), respectively. Therefore, the sport community is recommended to give a special priority to the 8-9 year period in the training process. It should also be emphasized that the strength endurance was tested to plateau in the 6-8 year period; that means that rhythmic gymnasts` coaches should make an emphasis on the strength endurance and maximal strength trainings in the most sensitive 8-9 year period.Dynamik von Maximalkraft und Kraftausdauer bei Athletinnen der Rhythmischen Sportgymnastik
