The Influence of Rigorous Training on Physical Growth Between Ages 14-17 among Professional and Non-Professional Gymnasts
The main aim of this study was to determine the influence of rigorous training on physical growth (PG) between age 14-17 among professional and non-professional gymnasts. The study included two groups; 40 professional and 40 non-professional male Artistic gymnasts. The mean difference between both groups shows that the increase in height of professional gymnasts after intervention is less than that of non-professional gymnasts. Professionals in pre-test and post-test which indicates mean and SD scores was found 159.31 ±9.85 in pre-test and 159.94±9.86 in post-test along with Mean % Dif. (0.63) in both tests and p <0.001 indicate that the difference is statistically significant in both pre & post-tests. Overall results show that PG of male artistic gymnasts (age 14-17 years old) was more negatively affected by RT in professional gymnasts as compare to non-professional groups.
