The Effect of Muscle Strength on the Capacity of Coordination in Handball

The relationship between muscle strength and coordination capacity was examined at 17 handball players aged between 16-18 years old (M = 17.06, SD = 0.827). Strength indices were calculated by reporting the measured values to body weight. “The muscle strain differentiation test of hands” was used for the neuromuscular coordination capacity and the “Pendulum-throw- target” test for the throwing accuracy. The paper notes that muscle strength, being below the optimal values, does not significantly influence the coordination capacity (CI = 95%). During this period, it is important to intensify the intramuscular coordination training, due to the qualitative aging of the SNC.
