The Effect of Nordic Exercise on Children's Agility

The aim of this research is to investigate the effect of one-way and two-way Nordic exercise on the agility of active children. Children who meet the necessary criteria will be randomly assigned to one-way Nordic exercise group, two-way Nordic exercise group and control group by drawing lots. Volunteers in the training group will participate in a four-week training, two sessions per week. Agility will be assessed at baseline and after four weeks with the T-agility test. In-group and between-group comparisons will be analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences program and appropriate tests.
