Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of plyometric training and complex training on speed component among runners. For this purpose, forty five (N=45) men runners who participated in Alagappa University intercollegiate athletic meet during the year 2016-2017, were selected randomly as subjects. They were divided into three equal groups of fifteen (n=15), namely Plyometric Training group, Complex Training group, and group III acted as Control. The training period was limited to three days per week for twelve weeks. The dependent variable selected for this study was Speed, and it was assessed by 30 meters run test. All the subjects were tested prior to and immediately after the experimental period on the selected dependent variable. The collected data were analyzed by using dependent‘t’-test to find out significant improvements. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to determine the differences, if any, among the adjusted post-test means. Whenever ‘F’-ratio for adjusted post-test mean was found to be significant, the Scheffe’s test was applied as post-hoc test to determine the paired mean differences. The level of significance was fixed at 0.05 level of confidence for all the cases. The results of the study showed all the experimental groups namely, Plyometric training group and Complex training group had significantly improved in Speed. Further the study showed Complex training group is better than Plyometric training group and control group
