RODRIGUEZ-SALAZAR, Mª. Clara; NORENA, Marcela  and  GONZALEZ, Olga I.. Biofeedback in activation control in tennis: a case study from the IZOF model. CPD [online]. 2014, vol.14, n.1, pp.83-90. ISSN 1989-5879.

The aim of this research is to determine the effect of a training program in activation control based on breathing biofeedback, on the effectiveness of the service in tennis players from Bogotá. The participants were three male players, between 10 and 16 years old, who their IZOF were determined by the measurement of heart rate with a CardioMonitor and the performance was measured at the first service by observation of effectiveness in the field areas. It was found that as the players control their heart rate holding within its zone of optimal performance, the performance improvement is proportional to the performance service, although there were differences between the participants.

Keywords : activation control; biofeedback; izof model.
