Summary:碩士 === 台北巿立體育學院 === 體育與健康學系碩士班 === 98 === Abstract Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore the vertical stability training effects on active cervical flexibility and maximal isometric strength of the female volleyball players. Methods: This study surveyed 25 players from a volleyball team、randomly assigned into group A and group B. The group A included 13 volleyball players and the group B 12 (each group was dropped out one subject). Neck active range of motion (ROM) and maximal isometric strength in six directions were measured by microFET 3 before each session of training and after the end of the 2nd session. In the 1st session of training、group A started vertical stability training and group B did control training for six weeks. In the 2nd session of training、groups A and B were switched the training program for another six weeks. We used SPSS 14.0 for data analysis. Data of 1st session were collected and compared by using two-way ANOVA with GLM repeated measures. Data of 2nd session were shown by descriptive statistics. The level of significance was set at α = 0.05 for all tests. Results: In the 1st session: 1. Significant difference was shown in VAS scroe in group A. 2. Significant differences were shown in active ROM in flexion、right side bending、and bilateral side rotation. 3. Significant differences were shown in maximal isometric strength in all directions. In the 2nd session: 1.The VAS score tended to increase in group A but decrease in group B. 2. The active ROM tended to decrease in six directions of group A but increase in all directions except right-side rotation of group B. 3. The maximal isometric strength tended to maintain in group A but increase in group B. Conclusion: Six weeks vertical stability training can relieve neck pain effectively in female volleyball players. And it also can increase neck fitness in certain directions. The vertical stability training may be physically beneficial to active ROM、maximal isometric strength、and conseguently sport performance of female volleyball players.
