握把對運動選手手腕之影響研究

本研究發現，握把的設計會影響選手的手部施力平均度。實驗證實第二型的握把在使用時，各肌群的施力較為平均。其餘各類型之握把雖然在某些肌群的施力上較為省力，但在總作用力不變的情況下，這些作用力會比較集中在另一肌群上，長期而言，容易造成該肌群的疲勞，也易於造成累積效應性創傷後遺症。研究同時發現，擊劍動作瞬間產生手腕的尺偏、橈偏、內轉和外轉等大角度動作，都在人類正常且安全的運動活動空間內，可能的運動傷害機率相對較低。因此選用適當的握把類型，預期對於運動能力及技術之提昇將會有直接的貢獻，對於運動傷害的預防也應有很大的助益。
The study found that the muscle strength distributed to the wrist was affected by the designing of handle type. The strength distribution of type 2 handle in this study is more balanced than the rest. Using the rest of the handle for a long period, the strength will concentrate on some muscle that easy cause muscle fatigue. Continued use will cause
tenosynovitis. In addition to tenosynovitis, a condition called carpal tunnel syndrome can develop. The study also found that the ulnar deviation, radial deviation, dorsi flexion and palmar flexion were in the normal range in fencing. Choosing a well-designed handle could not only avoid wrist injury, but can also enhance performance.
