Influence of Six-Week Plyometric and Strength Training on the Performance of Female Sprinters of the Islamia University of Bahawalpur

Abstract

    This is a comparative analysis of the female sprinter of the plyometric and strength training groups. Thirty participants (21.17±1.94 years) were selected from the Islamia University of Bahawalpur and divided into two groups. The selected variables were height and weight, skinfolds, girths, lengths, breadths, 30-meter dash, flexibility, agility, 600-meter running, sit-ups, standing long jump, push-ups, and 100-meter sprinter races. Two video cameras for videography with Kinovea software for kinematic analysis. Repeated measures ANOVA revealed that six-week strength and plyometric training significantly affected calf skinfold, Ilic-crest skinfold, arm relax and flex girth, hand grip strength, flexibility, left ankle angle at starting position, knee angle at starting position, 30-meter dash, and agility, and 100-meter performance. It was concluded that strength and plyometric training significantly reduces body fat, improving physical fitness. On the other hand, six weeks of plyometric training more significantly improves sprinting performance than strength training.
