The Effects of Balance Training on Balance Ability in Handball Players
EXERCISE AND QUALITY OF LIFE Research article Volume 4, No. 2, 2012, 15-22 UDC 796.322-051:796.012.266 THE EFFECTS OF BALANCE TRAINING ON BALANCE ABILITY IN HANDBALL PLAYERS Asimenia Gioftsidou , Paraskevi Malliou, Polina Sofokleous, George Pafis, Anastasia Beneka, and George Godolias Department of Physical Education and Sports Science, Democritus University of Thrace, Komotini, Greece Abstract The purpose of the present study was to investigate, the effectiveness of a balance training program in male professional handball players. Thirty professional handball players were randomly divided into experimental and control group. The experimental group (N=15), additional to the training program, followed an intervention balance program for 12 weeks. All subjects performed a static balance test (deviations from the horizontal plane). The results revealed that the 12-week balance training program improved (p<0.01) all balance performance indicators in the experimental group. Thus, a balance training program can increase balance ability of handball players, and could used as a prevent tool for lower limbs muscular skeletal injuries. Keywords: handball players, proprioception, balance training Introduction Handball is one of the most popular European team sports along with soccer, basketball and volleyball (Petersen et al., 2005). The sport medicine literature reports team sports participants, such as handball, soccer, hockey, or basketball players, reported an increased risk of traumatic events, especially to their lower extremity joints (Hawkins, and Fuller, 1999; Meeuwisse et al., 2003; Wedderkopp et al 1997; 1999). Injuries often occur in noncontact situations (Hawkins, and Fuller, 1999; Hertel et al., 2006) resulting in substantial and long-term functional impairments (Zech et al., 2009). -

THE BENEFITS of LEARNING to JUGGLE for CHILDREN Written by Dave Finnigan
THE BENEFITS OF LEARNING TO JUGGLE FOR CHILDREN Written by Dave Finnigan Fitness, Motor Skills, Rhythm, Balance, Coordination Benefits . Students can start acquiring pre-juggling skills in pre-school and kindergarten by learning to toss and catch one big, colorful, slow-moving nylon scarf. Once tossing and catching becomes routine, you can use one nylon scarf anywhere that you would normally use a ball or beanbag for most games and many individual challenges. Just think of the scarf as a "ball with training wheels." Scarf juggling and scarf play progresses in a step-by-step manner from one, to two, and on to three. Scarf play and scarf juggling requires big, flowing movements. Children get a great cardio-vascular and pulmonary work-out when they juggle scarves, exercising the big muscles close to the head and close to the heart. They will find scarf juggling to be a great deal of work and lots of fun at the same time. Once they move on to beanbags or other faster moving equipment, they get exercise not only from tossing, but from bending over to pick up errant objects as well. Once a student can juggle continuously, they can "workout" with heavy or bulky objects such as heavyweight beanbags, basketballs, or other items which provide strenuous exercise while they improve focus and dexterity. Because all of this tossing and catching activity can be done to music, you can use different types of music to help children acquire a sense of rhythm and a natural "beat." By working together, students can participate in a group activity requiring concentration and attention to task and reinforcing rhythm. -

Object Manipulation from Simplified Visual Cues
Sapienza – Universit`adi Roma FACOLTA` DI INGEGNERIA Corso di Laurea Specialistica in Ingegneria Informatica Tesi di Laurea Specialistica Object Manipulation from Simplified Visual Cues Candidato: Relatore: Giovanni Saponaro Prof. Daniele Nardi Correlatore: Prof. Alexandre Bernardino Anno Accademico 2007–2008 i Sommario La robotica umanoide in generale, e l'interazione uomo{robot in particolare, stanno oggigiorno guadagnando nuovi e vasti campi applicativi: la robotica si diffonde sempre di pi`unella nostra vita. Una delle azioni che i robot umanoidi devono poter eseguire `ela manipolazione di cose (avvicinare le braccia agli oggetti, afferrarli e spostarli). Tuttavia, per poter fare ci`oun robot deve prima di tutto possedere della conoscenza sull'oggetto da manipolare e sulla sua posizione nello spazio. Questo aspetto si pu`orealizzare con un approccio percettivo. Il sistema sviluppato in questo lavoro di tesi `ebasato sul tracker visuale CAMSHIFT e su una tecnica di ricostruzione 3D che fornisce informazioni su posizione e orientamento di un oggetto generico (senza modelli geometrici) che si muove nel campo visivo di una piattaforma robotica umanoide. Un ogget- to `epercepito in maniera semplificata: viene approssimato come l'ellisse che racchiude meglio l'oggetto stesso. Una volta calcolata la posizione corrente di un oggetto situato di fronte al robot, `epossibile realizzare il reaching (avvicinamento del braccio all'oggetto). In questa tesi vengono discussi esperimenti ottenuti col braccio robotico della piattaforma di sviluppo adottata. ii Abstract Humanoid robotics in general, and human{robot interaction in particular, is gaining new, extensive fields of application, as it gradually becomes pervasive in our daily life. One of the actions that humanoid robots must perform is the manipulation of things (reaching their arms for objects, grasping and moving them). -

Vpliv Gibalnih Sposobnosti Na Žongliranje Diplomsko Delo
UNIVERZA V LJUBLJANI FAKULTETA ZA ŠPORT Športna vzgoja Vpliv gibalnih sposobnosti na žongliranje Diplomsko delo MENTOR: prof. dr. Ivan Čuk SOMENTORICA: doc. dr. Maja Bučar Pajek RECEZENTKA: prof. dr. Maja Pori AVTOR: Blaž Slanič Ljubljana, 2015 ZAHVALA Zahvaljujem se vsem žonglerjem, brez njih diplomskega dela ne bi mogel izpeljati. Zahvala gre tudi mentorju, profesorju dr. Ivanu Čuku, ki mi je pomagal pri sami izvedbi diplomskega dela. Hvala partnerki in staršem, ki me pri mojih žonglersko-akrobatskih podvigih podpirate in mi stojite ob strani. HVALA. Ključne besede: žongliranje, gibalne sposobnosti, učinkovitost Vpliv gibalnih sposobnosti na žongliranje IZVLEČEK: Ker je žongliranje v Sloveniji zelo malo poznano, smo naredili raziskavo o vplivu gibalnih sposobnosti na unčikovitost v žongliranju. V raziskavi smo testirali gibalne sposobnosti slovenskih žonglerjev vseh starosti. Raziskava je vsebovala teste hitrosti, moči, ravnotežja, preciznosti, reakcijskega časa in ritma. Vse teste smo izvedli z levo in desno roko. Pogoj za sodelovanje na raziskavi je bil, da posameznik zna žonglirati s petimi žonglerskimi žogicami. Sodelovalo nas je 16 žonglerjev, starih med 13 in 40 let, in sicer 15 moških in 1 ženska. Na podlagi rezultatov smo ugotavljali, katere od gibalnih sposobnosti so tiste ključne, ki pripomorejo k lažjemu in bolj kontroliranemu žonglerskemu udejstvovanju. Podatki so bili obdelani v programu Excel 2010 in SPSS 16.0. Iz naših rezultatov je razvidno, da imata na učinkovitost v žongliranju največji vpliv bobnanje leva roka (ritem in tempo leve roke) in starost posameznika. Keywords: Juggling, motor skills, efficiency Effects of motor skills on juggling Because of the lesser known nature of jugging in Slovenia, we made our research on the effects of motor skills on it. -
