Abstract

This study aims to determine the relationship between eye-hand coordination, reaction speed, hand and arm muscle strength on the ability of straight strokes in boxing athletes. This type of research is descriptive quantitative research method that is correlation. The instrument in this study used 1) eye- hand coordination test, (2) reaction speed test using the ruler drop test (The Nelson's hand reaction test), (3) hand muscle strength test using a hand grip dynamometer, (4) arm muscle strength test using push-up test, (5) straight stroke speed test. The population in this study was the A23BC Bandar Lampung boxing club athlete and the sample technique used total sampling so that the sample used was 20 A23BC Bandar Lampung boxing club athletes. The data analysis technique in this study used a product moment correlation test with a sig level. 0.05. The results showed (1) There was a relationship between eye-hand coordination on the ability of straight strokes in boxing athletes with a sig. 0.004 0.05 and a positive value of 0.156. (2) There is a relationship between the speed of reaction to the ability of straight strokes in boxing athletes with the value of sig. 0.007 0.05 and a positive value of 2.792. (3) There is a relationship between hand muscle strength and the ability to hit straight on boxing athletes with sig. 0.001 0.05 and a positive value is 0.122. (4) There is a relationship between arm muscle strength and the ability to hit straight
