The impact of visual feedback in the development of motor performance angles to the 200-meter runners rowing (Kayak)

Abstract

The Application sciences played an important role in the development of the athletic levels of all sports especially in Olympics and international competitions. The result of this development was more attention to these sciences in the training and teaching processes. Visual and audio feedbacks are considered one of the important training and teaching styles that require using visual and oral styles. The problem of the research: Many coaches and trainers use visual feedback in their training yet they rarely concentrate on joints' angles while practicing on rowing. Developing these angles lead to a development in rowing mechanics and they can only be developed through using assisting methods to help the rower to observe his performance and correct his mistakes. Developing these angles will lead correct artistic performance as well as good achievement. Aims of the research: 1. Identifying the angles of motor performance for all body joints participating in rowing. 2. Designing a feedback program to correct these angles through visual feedback. Hypothesis of The Research: - There are significant differences in the values of working joints between the pre and posttests in favor of posttests. Fields of the research: 1. Subjects: youth national league rowers of the season 2007. 2. Duration: from 3/9/2007 till 22/9/2007 3. Place: the training center of rowing federation in Al Dejla River. Conclusions: 1. The development of all working joins' angles in rowing due to using visual feedback. 2. There is a development in the speed of rowing due to the improvement in joint angles which, in turn, improved the performance. 3. The development of the final race achievement by developing the time of achievement through visual feedback.
