Investigation of the effects of 8 week bosu ball exercises applied to female volleyball players on vertical jump and balance

Investigation of the effects of 8 week bosu ball exercises applied to female volleyball players on vertical jump and balance, was conducted 25 athletes between the ages of 17-20. the experimental group was apllied a Bosu ball exercise program for 4 days and 2 hourse per week for 10 weeks. SSPS 22.0 data analysis program was used in the analysis of the data obtanied in the study. The first result obtained in the study revealed that certain physycical charateristics were significantly different between the female volleyball players in the experimantal and control groups and that other characteristics were not different. According to another finding, it was determined that there were significant differences between the first and last vertical jump performances and ''are gap percentage'' measurements between the experimental and control groups, but there was no significant difference in other performance measurements. In addition, it was determined that there was a significant difference only in the medium speed measuremment results between the first and last performance measurements of the athletes in the control group and that the mesaurement averages in the post-test were higher. Finalyy, the fact that a isgnificant improvement was observed only in vertical jump performance in the experimental group and that no significant difference was found in other testsshows that the Bosu exercises applied are especially effective in lower extremity explosive power and force production.
