Effects of integrative neuromuscular training intervention on physical performance in elite female table tennis players: A randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To investigate the effects of integrative neuromuscular training (INT) on physical performance in elite female table tennis players.

Methods

Twenty-four Chinese elite female table tennis players were randomized into either INT (n = 12) group or control group (CON; n = 12). INT group performed four INT sessions every week for 8 weeks, while CON group performed traditional physical fitness training. One repetition maximal (1RM), vertical jump, Y balance test and 30-meter sprinting performance were tested before and after intervention.

Results

No between groups differences were detected for any tests before intervention. Significant group by time (before or after intervention) interaction effects were observed in 1RM, vertical jump, bilateral lower limb reachi
