Comparison of Some Motoric Characteristics of Female Athletics and Ski Athletes

This study aims to compare some of the motoric features of female athletes and female skiers who are similar in terms of their physical characteristics. Fifteen female national team athletes who had regularly trained for 10 years (8 skiers, 7 athletes) participated in the study voluntarily. In our study, height, endurance, quickness, strength measurements, various body measurements, flexibility and reaction measurements were measured. Independent samples t -test was used to determine the difference between the groups. The level of significance was determined asp <= .05. SPSS 20 statistics package program was used for the analysis. There was no difference between the groups in terms of age and height. It was determined that there was no difference between the right- and left-hand force averages and there was a significant difference between the backforce averages in favor of the skiers. It was observed that there was a difference between the athletes' endurance average in favor of the athletes, and the results were in favor of the skiers in the 50-mt quick test. Significant differences were found in body fat (kg), lean dry mass (kg), and body fluid averages. It was observed that the average of right- and left-hand reaction and sound of the skiers was higher than the athletes, while the flexibility of the athletes was higher than the skiers. As a result, when the physical properties between the two groups of athletes were examined, it was seen that their motoric characteristics showed significance. The biggest factor of this significant difference is thought to be the intensity, scope, and the number of repetitions of the exercises applied to the athletes.
