THE EFFECT OF SPECIAL BALANCE DEVELOPER TRAINING APPLICATIONS ON REACTION TIME AND BODY MASS INDEX OF ELEVEN YEAR OLD YOUNG MALES ABSTRACTThe aim of this research is to determine the effect of special balance trainings on reaction time (RT) and body mass index (BMI) of eleven year old young males. The sample of research includes a total of 75 young males randomly selected; 25 athletes trained in Atakum Municipality substructure, a sedentary group of 25 young males and 25 students of Bayindir Primary School. At the beginning of the research, balance developer special training program was applied to athletes and sedentary group for two months (8 weeks) by taking pre-test results of BMI and RT measured from young males. At the end of the research, the levels were measured by post-test application to determine the improvement of RT and BMI values. One-way ANOVA and Tukey multiple comparison test were applied to determine the difference among pre-test RT and BMI values measured from the three groups. The differences between pre-test and post-test values were evaluated by paired t-test. The differences between post-test values taken from athletes and sedentary group were evaluated by Student t-test. Research findings show that balance development special training program provides improvements at RT and BMI values for athletes and sedentary groups. Therefore, it was thought that special balance education program can improve athletes' and students' RT and BMI values by taking part at sports clubs' substructure education and primary schools' physical education lesson curriculums.
