简要总结
This study investigates the effects of calisthenics and life kinetics exercises on reaction time, balance, and swimming performance in male swimmers. Participants will be divided into two groups: one group will perform these additional exercises alongside their regular swimming training, while the other group will continue only with swimming. The study aims to find out if adding these exercises can improve swimmers' physical and performance abilities. The study lasts 8 weeks, with measurements taken before and after the program.
详细描述
his study evaluated the effects of an 8-week calisthenics and life kinetics exercise program on reaction time, balance, and swimming performance in male swimmers. Participants were randomly assigned to either an intervention group, performing the exercises alongside regular swim training, or a control group continuing swim training only. Pre- and post-intervention assessments included standardized reaction time tests, balance evaluations using validated tools, and swimming performance measured through timed swim trials. The study determined whether the addition of these exercises led to significant improvements in the swimmers' physical abilities and performance outcomes.

研究组 & 干预措施
Calisthenics Training Group
Participants received Calisthenics Training exercises in addition to their regular swimming training for 8 weeks.
干预措施: Calisthenics Exercise Program (Behavioral)
Life Kinetik Training Group
Participants performed the life kinetics exercise program on specific days per week, in addition to their regular swimming training, for a duration of 8 weeks.
干预措施: Life Kinetik Exercise Program (Behavioral)
Control Group
Participants continued with their regular swimming training only, without any additional interventions.
结局指标
主要结局
15-Meter Freestyle Swimming Time
时间窗: At baseline and 8 weeks of training
Participants' performance was assessed using a Selex stopwatch to measure the time (in seconds) taken to swim 15 meters freestyle. Timing started when the swimmer's toes left the starting block and stopped when their head crossed the 15-meter marker. Standard warm-up procedures and competitive swimming rules were followed.
25-Meter Freestyle Swimming Time
时间窗: At baseline and 8 weeks of training
The time (in seconds) required to complete a 25-meter freestyle swim was measured using a Selex SLX 508 digital sports stopwatch. Standard warm-up was completed before testing. Participants were instructed to swim at maximal effort.
