Abstract
Aim of the study. The aim of the study was to assess the range of motion of the upper limb among right and left-handed table tennis players aged 7-10 years and to analyze the influence of the playing hand on the range of motion.
Material and methods. the study covered 103 table tennis players who had a license in Silesian sports clubs for at least a year – 32 girls and 71 boys aged 7-10. One of the inclusion criteria for the study was participation in at least three training sessions per week. Among children, the range of motion of the upper limb was measured using the inertial GYKO device. Collected results were subjected to statistical analysis using a nonparametric U Mann Whitney test.
Results. Right-handed children playing table tennis showed a significantly greater range of motion of the right upper limb both during flexion and abduction movements. In turn, among left-handed children, the range of motion during both movements was significantly greater in the left upper limb.
Conclusions. Among the athletes, a relationship between the playing hand and the range of motion of the right and left upper limb both during flexion and abduction movements was found (p < 0.05). The participants had a significantly greater range of motion of the upper limb with which they played table tennis. Research has shown that among young table tennis players from the Silesian Voivodeship, therapeutic procedures are necessary to increase the range of motion of the non-playing hand.

Abstract
The high intensity of running athletes’ training to overtraining and athletes who are not optimal even forget to do stretching and cooling down causes shin splints injuries. This certainly interferes with the performance of athletes during training and competitions. This study aims to determine the effect of massage therapy and exercise therapy on the recovery of shin splint injuries in female long-distance runners in the master category. This type of research uses a quasi-experimental approach with a One-Control Group Pretest-Postest Design research design. The data collection technique used tests and measurements with a goniometer to measure the range of motion of the joints and a pain scale to determine the level of pain. The population in this study were female marathon athletes aged 42 years and over. The data analysis technique used the paired t-test after previously going through the normality test and homogeneity test. The results showed that there were significant differences in the treatment of massage therapy and exercise therapy, namely decreased pain and increased joint ROM with a value of p = 0.000 (p < 0.05).

Athlete’s Heart – New Take on Old Diagnosis

Anna Wizner, Mariola Szulik

A. Wizner, M. Szulik – Athlete’s Heart – New Take on Old Diagnosis. Fizjoterapia Polska 2019; 19(3); 92-99

Abstract
The article describes the issues concerning patients that practise sports and want to familiarize themselves with the mechanisms that influence cardiac muscle while doing physical activity (amateur or competitive) as well as physiotherapists that are familiar with the physiology of the physical effort and the adaptation of circulatory system to the activity including structural changes in heart, and who want to broaden their knowledge on that issue. Often, the latter share their professional knowledge with their patients, therefore it is crucial to remember such information. The topic depicted in the article is absolutely actual because it is acknowledged that a healthy lifestyle is the lifestyle of the 21st Century and a regular physical effort or lack of thereof is the most crucial factor that influences the state of a healthy individual and their length of life.

Aleksandra Kruk, Joanna Spurek, Marek Kiljański – Comparison of Physical Capacity in Swimming and Non-swimming Children Aged 10-12. Fizjoterapia Polska 2018; 18(3); 36-44

Abstract
Objective. The supreme objective of this study was to compare the physical capacity of swimming children and the children that do not do any physical activity, aged 10-12.
Materials and methods. The research was conducted among 60 children, of whom 30 swim regularly and the other half do not exercise physically at all. The research subjects included 13 girls and 17 boys aged 10-12. The study used a questionnaire as well as two exercise tests: Ruffier test and 6-minute march test.
Results. It was noted in the endurance tests that swimming persons had better results than the persons who do not do sports. The Ruffier test demonstrated that the physical performance of swimmers was better at almost every level. The 6-minute march test demonstrated that swimmers are able to cover a longer distance with a smaller effort than the physically passive persons. When analysing the results from the statistical point of view, one may note a relationship between the regularity of physical activity and the degree physical capacity.
Conclusions. The capacity of the children who are physically active is greater than of those who are not. The results are also affected by ways of spending free time and the amount of time devoted daily to activity.
