Table 2 Single repetition work/body weight ratios for wrist flexion/extension and forearm pronation/supination in elite female junior tennis players.
Movement pattern/speed | Dominant | Non‐dominant |
---|---|---|
Wrist extension 90° | 3.78 (1.33)* | 3.28 (1.19) |
Wrist extension 210° | 2.65 (1.23)* | 2.03 (0.96) |
Wrist flexion 90° | 5.31 (1.99)* | 3.96 (1.57) |
Wrist flexion 210° | 3.63 (1.49)* | 2.43 (1.31) |
Forearm pronation 90° | 4.33 (1.35)* | 2.29 (1.20) |
Forearm pronation 210° | 3.56 (1.08)* | 1.48 (0.97) |
Forearm supination 90° | 2.14 (1.02)† | 2.55 (0.84) |
Forearm supination 210° | 1.51 (0.75)† | 2.00 (0.73) |
Values are mean (SD).
All speeds expressed in degrees/second. Single repetition work is expressed in foot pounds relative to body weight in pounds.
*Significantly greater than the non‐dominant side, p<0.01.
†Significantly less than the non‐dominant side, p<0.01.
