| Summary: | Swimming and water polo is a sport that developing lung functionality Even it share
similar nature of sport, there will be different lung functionality due to different
pressure. Swimmers pressure between chest walls and water resistant. While, water
polo pressure is maintain the breathing and body from drowning by opponents. The
greater lung functionality also relate with the size of chest circumference. To
determined and compare the lung functionality between swimmers and water polo
athletes, and to see the relationship between chest circumference and lung
functionality. The lung functionality was measured between swimmers and water
polo athletes. There were 20 subjects of swimmers and 20 subjects of water polo
athletes. The range of aged is 12 to 16 years old. Recorded data had been analysed
using SPSS software version 16.0. The results show that there is no significant
different of lung functionality between swimmers and water polo athletes. However
there is significant relationship between chest circumference and lung functionality.
There is no significant different of lung functionality between swimmers and water
polo athletes. Thus, null hypothesis is accepted. There is significant relationship
between chest circumference and lung functionality. Thus, null hypothesis is
rejected. |
