THE REACTION SPEED OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF TRAINING ON FENCING ATHLETES
ABSTRACT Introduction: Fencing is a combat sport with fierce confrontation and variations in offense and defense. To a certain extent, speed is the decisive factor in winning the game. Objective: To explore the influence of different training methods on the reaction time of fencers. Method: 20 fencers were selected and divided into three groups with different fencing levels, in addition to one control group. The experimental groups trained in three 10-minute sessions a week. The control group trained for 3 hours in the afternoons, from Monday to Saturday. Results: After training, the experimental group fencers showed a highly significant difference in the selective response to foot movement (t=4.004, P=0.001<0.01). The simple reaction test of the fencers in the control group improved slightly after training, but it was not statistically significant (t=2.223, P=0.09>0.05). In the selective reaction time test without foot movement, the reaction time of the control group was significantly lower after training (t=3.450, P=0.026<0.05). Conclusion: Regardless of the student›s fencing level, different training methods can significantly improve their reaction time. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment results.
