Abstract

V originále

The purpose of this study was to compare reactive agility of table tennis players before and after specific warm-up based on sport-specific game exercises. Twenty two table tennis players participated in our study (average age 21.8, height 178.2cm, weight 77.1kg). We used a modified Agility test for Table Tennis using the FiTRO Agility check before (pretest) and after warm-up (post-test) and compared the results. The effect of the warm-up was evident. We have proved a statistically significant improvement of reaction movement time. Reaction movement time was better by 4.87% equivalent 43.14 ms in our test (4.42% when using hands, 5.3% when using feet). Based on our findings, we recommend applying sport-specific exercises in the warm-up.
