Journal Title: Antropomotoryka. Journal of Kinesiology and Exercise Sciences - Year 2004, Vol 14, Issue 27

Abstract

The purpose of the work. The aim of this work was to investigate the level of flexibility among boys at the age of 10-13 representing different sports disciplines. Materials and methods. The research material consisted of pupils of sports classes in Szczecin. Investigations had been conducted on the grounds of the test of the forward bend depth in a sitting posture. Additionally structural parameters had also been investigated to eliminate the effect of limbs length on the measurement value.Results. Results obtained among older age-groups had shown no statistically significant differences between particular groups, whereas in case of the youngest age-group statistically significant differences had occurred between the check group and the group of boys representing particular sports disciplines.Obtained results had not shown significant differences arising from the peculiarity of the practised sport. Furthermore the lack of significant differences among the older age-groups under investigation might indicate negligence in developing a proper level of flexibility.
