TREINAMENTO COMBINADO E FORÇA EXPLOSIVA NOS MEMBROS INFERIORES DOS JOGADORES DE BASQUETE

ENTRENAMIENTO COMBINADO Y FUERZA EXPLOSIVA EN LOS MIEMBROS INFERIORES DE LOS JUGADORES DE BALONCESTO

ABSTRACT

Introduction:

Basketball presents unique competitive characteristics, requiring athletes a high level of strength, especially explosive strength.

Objective:

Study the effect of combined training on the explosive power of lower limbs in basketball players.

Methods:

The author selected 18 basketball players, equally distributed with the random method into a unipodal combined training group (S group), a two-legged combined training group (D group), and a conventional strength training group (W group), for the three-test data. Statistical analysis was performed on the data collected from the experiment.

Results:

There was a significant difference in approach height and three-quarter sprint in group S (p<0.05). The difference was not evident in the height of touch in situ (p>0.05). In group D, there was a significant difference in situ touch height p<0.01. There was no significant difference in the results of the three test indicators in group W (p>0.05).

Conclusion:

Compared to conventional strength training, unipodal combined training is more effective for the development of explosive strength in the lower limbs of basketball students. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
