Arm Muscle Power, Agility, and Chets Pass Ability in Basketball: Is there a Connection?

Abstract

Basketball is one of the most popular sports in the world. A basketball player needs to have cardiovascular power to run up and down the court from time to time during four-quarters of a game, but players must also be able to perform explosive bursts of speed, explosive jumps, and explosive moves for agility, over time. Arm muscle power is one of the things needed by basketball players to be able to pass well, because basketball players rely on attributes related to strength to perform basi c techniques. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between arm muscle power and agility to basketball chest pass ability. The method used in this study was correlational, the sample in this study was 33 male students Haluoleo University Physical Education study program. Instruments used to measure arm muscle power with two-hand medicine ball put, instruments to measure agility with shutlle run tests, and chest pass ability test instruments using chest pass ability tests. The data analysis technique used in this study used product moment correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis using SPSS 26. The results of this study are known to have a positive relationship between arm muscle power and chest pass ability in students of 0.414 with a significance value of 0.016. As for the agility variable, it has no relationship with chest pass ability of 0.054 with a significance value of 0.766. The relationship of Arm Muscle Power and Agility to Chest Pass Ability has a correlation value of 0.417 with a significance value of 0.057. This means that there is a relationship between Arm Muscle Power and Agility to Chest Pass Ability, but it is not significant. The two independent variables together affect the dependent variable by 17.4%. The conclusion of this study is that it can be concluded that there is a positive and significant relationship between arm muscle power and students' chest pass ability. The success of doing a chest pass is to use the strength of the arm muscles so that the ball moves. This means that the better the strength of the player's arm muscles, the faster the ball will move. The strength needed to perform this chest pass movement is obtained from the strength of the muscles in the arm. If done well and systematically, it will affect the ability of chest passes in basketball. While there is no relationship between agility and chest pass ability, speed remains an important component of basketball. Based on this, a good exercise program is needed to increase arm muscle power so that chest pass ability can increase, besides that it is also necessary to include an agility training program to support all aspects of the basketball game.
