Abstract: (378 Views)
Background. Analyzing force characteristics generated during rowing is a crucial determinant of success among elite rowers.
Objectives. This study analyzed the synchronization of force in the performance of elite Men's Lightweight Coxless Four (LM4-) athletes in Indonesia.
Methods. A descriptive and quantitative method was adopted, engaging four male rowing athletes from the Indonesian national team with average age, height, and weight of 22 ± 1 years, 180 ± 2.5 cm, and 70 ± 0.5 kg, respectively. Furthermore, mean and standard deviation were calculated as initial data for further analysis on the normality (Chi-square method), homogeneity (Lavene's test method), and bivariate correlation test with sig <0.01. The PowerLine instrumentation system introduced by Peachinnovation was synchronized with 3 Panasonic Handycam HC-V100 Full HD cameras for video recording purposes.
Results. The results showed that the p-value of the catch angle against the effective angle is 0.566 and the p-value of the finish angle against the finish angle is -0.761, the presence of variations in the magnitude of force generated by four rowers with the same force graph shape. The study offered a thorough scientific examination of oarlock force concerning the angle and timing of rowing in the boat. This clarification enhanced the understanding of previous examinations on the force's effectiveness concerning rowing angle and time. A total of 4 observed rowers were synchronized, and the results showed variations in force magnitudes concerning time and angle while the graph shape remained constant.
Conclusion. The rowing method of the four athletes was harmonious, but the collective effectiveness was not uniform.
