Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of general and local fatigue of constant shooting of basketball players with disability.
Methodology: To this end we used 12 basketball players with disability on wheelchair. These players in this study participated with their consent while they had the best shooting techniques. Each subject in the pre-test attempts 5 constant shots to the ring and after the implementation of general and local fatigue protocols performed 5 constant shots. General fatigue protocol consisted of designed routes that person runs until exhaustion without any rest. In the local fatigue protocol just group of extensor muscles of elbow practiced. In each protocol for measuring the fatigue were used rating of perceived exertion (RPE) (10 point). For statistical analysis of repeated measures analysis of variance was used.
Results: The results showed that local fatigue of constant shooting basketball player with disability had a significant effect on the alpha level of 0.05. general fatigue of constant shooting basketball player with disability was not significant effect and between these two models, general and local fatigue was not significant. The findings suggested that educators in the wheelchair basketball should be paid attention to local fatigue of extensor muscles of elbow for performance of constant shooting. Reduce capacity and maximum voluntary muscle function, impaired activation of agonist and antagonist muscles and ultimately reduce neuro-muscular system performance, the result of fatigue. The effect was significant on local fatigue and the fatigue performance is reduced.
Discussion: The overall result is that local fatigue can reduce performance, especially in fixed-throw shooting has been disabled basketball players.
