The effect of experience in movement coordination with music on polyrhythmic production: Comparison between artistic swimmers and water polo players during eggbeater kick performance
Abstract:The aim of this study was to compare artistic swimmers (ASs) and water polo players (WPs) in their polyrhythmic production ability and entrainment between arm and leg motion frequency. Nine ASs and nine WPs participated in the study. First, we assessed the natural eggbeater kick frequency of each participant without any additional motion for 20 s. We then required the participants to perform a circular arm movement in synchronization with two sequences of metronome rhythms (either 100%, 80% and 120% or100%, 12… Show more
