Abstract
This study aims to reveal the achievement motivation of the athlete's long jump ability. This is so motivated by the observations of the athlete's performance is still not under the reality. Achievement of an athlete long jump is still lower than the previous year and declines. One reason is the low motivation of athlete achievement. This phenomenon is an attraction for writers to examine related to the optimization of achievement motivation to improve the performance of long jump athletes. This research is the quasi-experiment. Sampling is done by purposive random sampling. The sample size was 32 people out of 58 athletes. Achievement motivation data got through the use of instruments in the form of a questionnaire. Validity analysis is to test using product-moment correlation SPSS version 20.00 and data analysis with T-Test. The results showed that there was a significant difference in ability of long jump athletes with high achievement motivation compared to low achievement motivation.
Highlights
The long jump is one of the jumping numbers in an athletic branch which of consist the jumping jump, high jump and high pole jump (Abbas, 2017; Muhajir, 2007b; Purba, 2014; Septianto, 2015)
Long jump is a form of jumping foot movement upward to bring the weight as long as possible on the air or fly on the air that is done and by doing repulsion on one foot to reach the far distance (Syafruddin, 2011)
To obtain the preliminary data required for this study is to measure the achievement motivation level of with a long jump test in accordance to the standard of all Indonesian athletics unity (PASI)
Summary
The long jump is one of the jumping numbers in an athletic branch which of consist the jumping jump, high jump and high pole jump (Abbas, 2017; Muhajir, 2007b; Purba, 2014; Septianto, 2015). Long jump is a form of jumping foot movement upward to bring the weight as long as possible on the air or fly on the air that is done and by doing repulsion on one foot to reach the far distance (Syafruddin, 2011). The long jump is an athletic number where the athlete combines speed, power and agility in an effort to land as far as from the point of repulsion (Ho & Chang, 2013; Kamnardsiria et al, 2015; Pradon et al, 2014; Yadav, 2015). Prefix is a start movement in the form of running to get the speed at which time will perform repulsion or leap. The speed obtained from the prefix is called the horizontal velocity, which is very useful to help the force at the time of repulsion upwards
