Abstract

The development of preventive provisions is an important topic of sport accident research. We demonstrate the stepwise procedure of judging a provision taking the analysis of a gymnastic exercise. This includes determination of the inner and outer reasons of accidents, the biomechanical conditions of the exercise and leads to mathematical and experimental simulation of the dangerous movement. The specific exercise we studied was the efficiency of a coach in protecting position for the handstand somersault with 1 1/2 breakneck leap. The reaction ability of the coach during the exercise and his force capacity to prevent an accident is explored by a newly developed reaction time analyzer and by a catapult apparatus throwing a dummy. Our results show the inadequacy of the prevention provision of a coach in protecting position for the special gymnastic exercise.
