ABSTRACT
Introduction
Table tennis is widely acclaimed by the public and is also one of the most popular activities chosen by Chinese athletes. However, many athletes only pay attention to learning sports skills in sports training and neglect muscle strength training.
Objective
Study the training strategy of the muscles that make up the elbow joint in table tennis players and its influence on sports.
Methods
This paper selected 5 high-level high school table tennis athletes from a university as research volunteers. The training content included strength training, flexibility training, and other physical tests. The duration of the training was one hour, four times a week. The total training lasted six weeks.
Results
For the movement at a speed of 180°/s, the peak torque, the relative peak torque, and the percentage of peak flexor and extensor torque of the elbow joint of the athletes showed significant gains. However, the elbow joint change in flexion range was much shorter than in extension.
Conclusion
Coaches and athletes should choose a mode of elbow muscle training according to their actual needs, promoting the development of elbow muscle strength in athletes to raise their competitive level. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
