PHYSICAL FITNESS TRAINING AND REACTION SPEED IN SPORTS TABLE TENNIS PLAYERS

ABSTRACT Introduction: Table tennis is demanding in terms of athletes’ physical fitness and muscular responsiveness. Excellent physical fitness is important to ensure a high technical level. It can also play an essential role in injury prevention. Objective: Explore the correlation between table tennis players’ movements and their displacements. Methods: Volunteer professional competitors underwent a private 16-week quality speed training program. In this experiment, athletes had their speed analyzed before and after training. Mathematical and statistical analyses were performed on the collected data. Some discussions are made to improve the reflex ability of the athletes. Results: The table tennis players’ physical fitness and action response capacity were explored. After physical exercise, the players’ reflex ability improved. There were statistically significant differences in the data (P<0.05). Conclusion: The results show that special training improves athletes’ reaction speed, endurance, strength, coordination, and flexibility. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
