The aim of the study was to compare the changes in tremor after two exercises. Twelve male kayakers and seventeen male PE students participated in the study. The kayakers performed a specific kayak ergometer test. The students performed bilateral elbow flexion/extension with a barbell. Tremor was measured accelerometrically pre-exercise and then 10 and 30 min after the last bout. The tremor spectra were computed for each subject. Fatigue evoked in both tests brought about dramatic increases in tremor amplitude. The changes observed after strength training were greater but recovered faster than those after ergometer test.
