Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate the Performance difference in Cast to support on Parallel bars according to gymnast skill level and to assist them to improve performances. Ten gymnast were selected who participated in All India Interuniversity gymnastics championship in this study and they were divided into two groups i.e. skilled group (n=5) and less-skilled group (n=5) and t-test was used to find the difference at the moment of kicking and pulling up phase between groups. To test the equality of variances, Levene’s test was used. The F-value for testing the homogeneity of variances is insignificant found only in the neck joint as the p-value is more than.05 and rest of the variables i.e. shoulder joint, hip joint, center of gravity and performance were found significant, and it is concluded that if the coach improves the hip joint extension through stretching exercises and develop the shoulder muscles strength then the performance of the gymnast of less skilled group in cast to support will develop faster.
