Effects of Intensive Training on Sitting Height Growth between Age 14-17 Among Male Professional and Non-Professional Gymnasts

    This study was to explore the effects of intensive training on sitting height growth between professional and non-professional gymnasts. The study contained both groups; 40 professional and 40 non-professional male artistic gymnasts. Professional gymnasts experienced a lower rise in sitting height growth (SHG) following rigorous training (RT) intervention than non-professional gymnasts. Professionals' mean and SD scores for the pre-test and post-test were 80.99 ±9.06 and 80.73 ±12.98, respectively. The mean difference -0.26% for both tests and the p>0.91 suggests that the differences are statistically significant. Non-professional mean and SD scores for the pre and post-tests were 80.28±9.14 and 82.87±5.83, respectively. The tests also showed a mean difference of 2.59% in both cases, and p<0.01 indicated that the differences were statistically significant. The finding, in comparison to non-professional groups, the SHG of male artistic gymnasts (ages 14–17) was more adversely impacted by RT in professional gymnasts.
