The effect of exercises using the 4D Pro tool on developing a number of special physical variables and some skills on the artistic gymnastics jumping table for men

Abstract

The research aims to identify the effect of exercises using the (4D Pro) tool on some special physical variables and the skills of the Arabic jump and the front hand jump on the artistic gymnastics vault table for men for the junior category. The researchers assumed that there are significant differences between the results of the pre- and post-tests for the physical and skill variables for the sample. For the research, the researchers used the experimental method and the design of one experimental group, in order to suit the nature of the research problem. As for the research sample, it consisted of the players of the Specialized Academy of Artistic Gymnastics for men, for the training season (2023-2024), for the junior category, and they numbered (10) players ranging in age from (8-10) years old, representing 100% of the community of origin, The exercises were implemented using the (4D Pro) tool, on Sunday, corresponding to (9/10/2023), until Wednesday, (11/15/2023), for a period of (10) weeks, with two training units per week for (Sunday and Wednesday), After completing the experiment, conducting post-tests, obtaining the results, tabulating them, and processing them statistically through the use of appropriate means, the researchers reached a set of conclusions, the most important of which were: The exercises used with the 4D Pro tool played a major role in developing the special physical variables of the individuals in the research sample, and these exercises greatly reduced the assistance that the player needs for the purpose of performing optimally, Thus, the researchers recommend the necessity of adopting exercises using the 4D PRO tool to develop some physical variables for men’s artistic gymnastics players, as well as providing appropriate numbers of these tools and placing them at the hands of coaches.
