Performance of Athletes on Leg Motion

Shirsh N. Solanki

Abstract :

40 male athletes of age between 19 to 25 years from Dr. Subhash College of Physical Education, Junagadh (Gujarat) were considered as subjects. Their anthropometric measurements and speed were measured. Standard anthropometric kit was used to measure the anthropometric measurements of athletes. The analyses of t–tests were computed to find out the significant difference between anthropometric measurements and kinematic parameters of athletes. Results & Discussion: Angular momentum was showing a high correlation with power (0.496) followed by weight (0.331) and height (0.331), however, the speed (0.209) did not yield any significant association. Angular velocity was showing a high correlation with speed (0.816) followed by height (0.528) and weight (0.528), however, the power (0.470) shown a moderate significance. Angular momentum was showing a high correlation with speed (0.774) followed by height (0.544), however, the power (0.567) shown a moderate significance. Conclusion: The interrelationship between speed and power of running has shown a significantly positive association in relation to their kinematic parameters. The kinematic parameters have shown a greater influence on the leg of the athlete which was finally given a cylindrical shape of the leg which is always appropriate in generating the leg motion of the athlete
