ASSESSMENT OF THE HANDBALL PLAYERS

FMS consists of seven test component which are used to evaluate various main movement models.Individuals completed one by one deep squat, high stepping, single line lunge, shoulder mobility, straight leg raises, trunk stability push-ups, rotation stability which are component tests. Subcomponent tests assess asymmetry by measuring the individual bilaterally. Each component test was scored on an ordinal scale (0 to 3 points), with a maximum score of 3, based on the quality of the movement. Less than 3 points indicated that the individual performed some form of compensation or was unable to complete the entire movement.While individuals were doing these tests, they were recorded in the video , the final scoring was done by evaluating the images. The scores of the component tests were summed, resulting in a composite score between 0 and 21 points, with a maximum score of 21

Participants are evaluated with kasari physical activity survey. According to the FIT score, physical activity level is commented as sedentary between 0-20, poor between 21-40, normal between 41-60, good between 61-80 and perfect between 81-100

YBT, which is performed in the standing position on one leg , is dynamic a test. Participants stood on the footplate in the centre of the Y Balance Test area and then, it was given instruction them that they should maintain a single leg stance while reaching as far as possible with the opposite leg and return to the starting position on the centre platform without losing balance.In the test, individuals were asked to reach the maximum distance in 3 directions (anterior, posteromedial and posterolateral), allowing 3 trials for each leg. The maximum reach distance was recorded for each consecutive trial

The flexor muscle endurance test is initiated with the subject in a sitting position, with the back leaning against an apparatus angled 60 degrees from the floor. Both knees and hips are flexed to 90 degrees and the support apparatus is withdrawn and the time the person maintains the position is recorded The extensor muscle endurance test is performed with the upper trunk extended towards the end of the bed on which the test is performed and the pelvis, knees and hips fixed. The time the upper trunk maintains its level is recorded The lateral bridge test was performed with the individual lying in the full side bridge position (left and right side separately). Individuals supported themselves on one elbow and their feet while lifting their hips off the floor to form a straight line from head to toe. The test was terminated when the individual lost the straight back posture and/or their hips touched the floor.
