Confiabilidade intra e interssessão da taxa de produção de força no campus board instrumentalizado em escaladores esportivos

Abstract

The aim of this study was to verify the reliability intra and intersession of the rate of force development (RFD) in the instrumentalized Campus Board (CB) on sport climbers. Twenty-two male volunteers with at least 3 years of Climbing experience and at least one year of CB training participated. The test consisted in performing counter-movement exercise, called BoteCAE, performed in two days with an interval of 48 hours which was measured by a single evaluator. Five maximum executions were performed with a one-minute interval between them. To measure the variable rate of force development two force cells were adapted in Campus Board. The TPF values of BoteCAE presented high intrasession reliability values for both the first day (CCI2.1 = 0.777, p = 0.001) and the second day (CCI2.1 = 0.790, p = 0.001) (CCI2, k = 0.873, p = 0.001), as well as in the intersessions (CCI2,k = 0,873; p=0,001). Therefore, the results allow to conclude that the rate of force development is a measure of reliable performance and that can be used to monitor and detect significant changes in the performance of sport climbers
