Effect of plyometric training and SAQ training followed by detraining on selected bio-motor abilities of school level kabaddi players

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to examine the effect of Plyometrics training and SAQ training followed by detraining on selected Bio-motor abilities of school level kabaddi players. The investigator selected a total of thirty (N=30) male kabaddi players between the age group of 12-18 years from CMS high school Olassa Kottayam Districts. 10 subject of them, as SAQ training (N=10), Plyometric training (n=10) and control group (n=10) were selected as subjects. Total duration was for 8week All the subjects were tested on selected criterion variables prior to and immediately after the six weeks of Kabaddi training programme. The de training effect had measured after the two weeks of training. The study aimed at mainly to find out the impact of Plyometric training and SAQ training followed by detraining on selected Bio-motor abilities of school level kabaddi players. The bio motor variables (dependent variables) selected for the study were explosive strength and agility. Thus data collected on the above variables from thirty kabaddi players were fit into three equal groups. Hence Analysis of covariance (ANACOVA) was applied for find out the significance level. The result indicates that there was significant difference in explosive strength Hence the research hypothesis first stated has been accepted in the case of explosive strength Further it was hypothesized that there would be a significant improvement on bio-motor abilities due six weeks of SAQ training. The pretest scores and post test scores were compared to find out effect of the training. The result indicates that there was significant difference in agility.
