Effects of a 10-week detraining period on gross motor skills in young tricking practitioners. Cultura, Ciencia y Deporte. ISSN 1696-5043. 19:59, p. 55-631696-5043http://hdl.handle.net/10198/29769Tricking has emerged as a martial arts sport that combines acrobatics, gymnastics, kicks and jumps to create multiple visually striking movements. The effects of a period of detraining in young tricking practitioners still unclear. The main objective of this study was to verify the effect of a 10week detraining period on different motor skills in young tricking practitioners. A group of 17 children (age: 10.18 +/- 0.98 years) tricking practitioners were analyzed in a predetraining period and a post -detraining period using agility test, vertical impulse test, horizontal impulse test and pushup test, sit-up test. The agility and sit-ups variables show significant differences of large effect ( Delta = 6.82, p = .001, d = 2.80; increment = -13.76, p = .003, d = 1.27) respectively. Vertical impulse and push-ups showed significant differences between training phases a moderate effect ( Delta = -5.13, p = .007, d = .85; Delta = -8.37, p = .006, d = 1, 13). Results showed that agility and abdominal strength test sit ups were those that decreased to a greater extent in these subjects with a large effect, being the vertical jump as well as the push up, the motor tests that decreased moderately, while the horizontal jump did not vary significantly.engExtreme sportsYouthAgilityStrengthVertical jumpResearch Subject Categories::INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS::Sportsjournal article10.12800/ccd.v19i59.20701989-7413
