자동성형 인솔(X-Sole) 착용이 골프 선수의 드라이버 수행능력과 운동역학적 변인에 미치는 영향

Abstract

Affecting factors to shot stability according to golf swings can be approached variously. However, it can be summarized to body type, physical strength, and ground slopes etc from approaches of physical aspects. Specially, shapes of golf shoes which are contacted to surface of the earth and feeling of cushion, and the insole in the shoes give helps to enable lower body to be stabilized. For this reason, this study analyzed effects of wearing automated molding insole (X-sole) on driving distance of the driver, deviation between right and left, and electromyogram objecting to 11 athletes of KPGA and KLPGA, and following conclusion could be drawn as a result. First, wearing automated molding insole affected to increases of driving distances due to fast rotation by enlarging stability of lower body. Second, wearing automated molding insole was turned out to make a positive factor to athletic performance according to golf swings by decreasing increase muscle activities of measured muscles. In conclusion, tiredness of the lower body decreased reactions of muscles by causing damages on adjusting body balance, and raised anxiety of muscles. Thus, additional researches in actual rounds will be necessary afterwards because wearing automated molding insole affected positive influences to driving distance and deviation between right and left of athletes.
