EFFECTS OF INTEGRATED TRAINING WITH THE USE OF ACTION PERCEPTION LIGHT SENSORS ON AGILITY, RAPIDITY AND MOTOR REACTION IN FEMALE VOLLEYBALL PLAYERS
Abstract
In volleyball, the use of light sensors of perception of action, integrated into an 6-week training program, can improve motor reaction times, speed of movement and agility in athletes, which represent success factors in sports performance. Twenty-four female players under 20, were assigned to control (CG; n=12) and experimental (EG; n=12) groups. The difference of the results (T-test) between pre and post test, showed that the EG compared to the CG has significantly better scores in all tests.
