The aim of the paper is to compare the categories of physical activities between male and female sports experts. The results of the research showed that 63% of trainers practice high physical activity, and 36% moderate physical activity, with women applying high physical activity by 6.8% more than male sports experts. Observed physical activity is expressed in MET units (metabolic equivalent of task). The analysis of the chi-square test did not show a statistically significant difference in the representation of physical activity categories among male and female sports experts. The observed level of physical activity (light, moderate, heavy, total physical activity), analyzed using the t-test for independent samples, did not show a significant...

It was conducted on the territory of Vojvodina autonomous province on a sample of 27 male volleyball players with an average age of 17.48 ± 0.50 years and an average sports experience of 6.33 ± 2.83 years. A test battery consisting of five variables for measuring morphological characteristics and twelve tests of abilities was applied: flexibility, speed, agility, endurance, static and explosive power. The normality of the data distribution was controlled by the Shapiro-Wilk test, and the connection between morphological characteristics and abilities was calculated by the Spearman ro correlation coefficient. The limit value for testing the normality of distribution of p> 0.05 was not met by: body mass index (p = 0.01), straddle in supine position (p = 0.03), single leg counter movement jump with the left leg (p = 0.01) and Yo-Yo Intermittent endurance test le...

The research sample consisted of 18 matches (10 juniors, 8 cadets) at international tournaments in 2018 (ETTU Youth Top 10 in Portugal, European Youth Championship in Romania). The results of the analysis of the Hi-square independence test showed the existence of a statistically significant difference in the number of performed Forhand (FH) and Backhand (BH) short services in table tennis players. By 4.3%, more BH short services were recorded among juniors, while cadets significantly more used FH short services (3.5%) compared to older teammates. The research also proved the existence of a statistically significant difference in certain indicators of service efficiency. By 6.9%, Service without advantage is significantly higher among female cadets, and Service with acqu...

VO2max, as a basic parameter of functional abilities, was obtained by applying a laboratory progressive test on the treadmill. The sample of respondents was composed of 57 respondents (GOD = 22.47 ± 3.78SD), football players of clubs competing in the first and second leagues of Serbia from the area of Vojvodina, of which 8 goalkeepers, 16 defensive, 17 midfielders and 16 attackers. To test the functional capabilities (oxygen consumption - VOmax), we used a test of progressive continuous load on the treadmill with increasing load per minute through a "breath-by-breath" gas analyzer (Quark PFT ErgoCPET, Cosmed, Italy), which gave data on ventilation and spiroergometric parameters of the subjects by different positio...

Role of forehand spinkick is multifunctional. In the game it can be applied as a basic attack hit when you want to make points and as a preparatory kick for starting the attack phase. The Paper presents exercises that can be used in the phase of basic training, exercising and improving of different variants of forehand spins. Selection and implementation of these exercises is conditioned with individual characteristics and abilities of table tennis players.

For the needs of the research, 30 respondents were tested, of which 10 were football, 10 handball players and 10 judo athletes. Testing was conducted in Isokinetic Diagnostic Cabinet of the Provincial Institute for Sports and Sports Medicine in Novi Sad on the isokinetic dynamometer “Easytech prima DOC”. Significant differences were noted in the maximum torque moment of both legs extensors force (PTQR, PTQL) between judo athletes and football players, in favor of judo. Obtained results between observed groups can be attributed to the various sports branches training processes specificities, i.e. performing certain techniques in the sport itself

The representative sample consisted of 48 top senior table tennis players from Bosnia and Herzegovina, age 18 and 36, selected on the basis of a qualification tournament. The measuring instruments for this study included eight assessment tests for the table tennis players' technical and tactical characteristics and one test for assessing success in table tennis competitions. Technical and tactical characteristics of the participants were evaluated by five experts who analyzed the efficacy of technical and tactical characteristics of the players on a scale ranging from 1 to 5. The methods of processing the results included descriptive statistical procedures, the multiple correlation coefficient, the determinant coefficient and a multiple regression analysis. The results indicate that technical and tactical characteristics...
