The Relationship between Plantar Pressure Distribution and Balance in Adolescent Taekwondo Athletes

Öz:

The purpose of this research was to examine the relationship between plantar pressure distribution and balance in adolescent taekwondo athletes. Twenty-three adolescent taekwondo athletes participated in the study voluntarily. Pedobarographic method was used to determine the plantar pressure and plantar force. Flamingo balance test for static balance and lower quarter Y balance test for dynamic balance were applied. Pearson correlation test was used to determine the relationship between plantar pressure distribution and balance. A moderate significant negative relationship between the non-dominant leg static balance and the plantar pressure at the forefoot of the athletes (r=-.466, p=.025), and a moderate significant positive relationship with the plantar pressure at the rearfoot (r=.466, p=.025) was determined. There was a moderate positive correlation between the dynamic balance ability and the dynamic plantar force during walking in the anterior direction (r=.552, p=.008) and a high positive correlation in the posteromedial direction (r=.656, p<.001) in the dominant leg; moderate positive correlation (r=.483, p=.020) in the posteromedial direction and moderate positive correlation in the posterolateral direction (r=.437, p=.037) was observed in the non-dominant leg of participants. As a result, plantar pressure distribution and force were associated with static and dynamic balance in adolescent taekwondo athletes. It is recommended that plantar pressure data should not be ignored during the developmental period in adolescent taekwondo athletes, possible plantar disorders should be followed and balance exercises should be added to training in order to have optimal plantar pressure distribution.

Adolesan Taekwondo Sporcularında Plantar Basınç Dağılımı ile Denge Arasındaki İlişki

Öz:

Bu araştırmanın amacı adolesan taekwondo sporcularında plantar basınç dağılımı ile denge arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesidir. Araştırmaya yirmi üç adolesan taekwondo sporcusu gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Plantar basınç ve plantar kuvvetini belirlemek amacıyla pedobarografik yöntem kullanılmıştır. Statik denge için flamingo denge testi ve dinamik denge için alt ekstremite Y denge testi uygulanmıştır. Plantar basınç dağılımı ve denge arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesi için Pearson korelasyon testi kullanılmıştır. Sporcuların baskın olmayan bacak statik denge ile ayakların ön kısmına uyguladıkları plantar basınç arasında orta düzeyde anlamlı negatif ilişki (r=-.466, p=.025) ve ayakların arka kısmına uyguladıkları plantar basınç arasında orta düzeyde anlamlı pozitif ilişki (r=.466, p=.025) tespit edilmiştir. Katılımcıların dinamik denge performansı ile yürüyüş esnasındaki dinamik plantar kuvvet arasında baskın bacak anterior yönde orta düzey (r=.552, p=.008) ve posteromedial yönde yüksek pozitif ilişki (r=.656, p<.001); baskın olmayan bacakta posteromedial yönde orta düzey (r=.483, p=.020) ve posterolateral yönde orta düzey pozitif ilişki (r=.437, p=.037) elde edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak adölesan taekwondocularda plantar basınç dağılımı ve kuvvetinin, statik ve dinamik denge ile ilişkilidir. Adölesan taekwondocularda, gelişim döneminde plantar basınç verilerinin göz ardı edilmemesi, olası ayak taban rahatsızlıklarının takip edilmesi ve plantar basınç dağılımının optimal olması için denge çalışmalarının antrenmanlara eklenmesi önerilmektedir.
