Abstract

ABSTRACT A COMPARISON OF TWO PRORESSIVE WEIGHT TRAINING METHODS ON LEG STRENGTH AND ANAEROBIC POWER OF HIGH SCHOOL BOYS YÜKTAŞIR Bekir M.S. in Physical Education Supervisor : Assoc.Prof. Dr.Fehmi TUNCEL Co-Supervisor : Assoc.Prof.Dr.Kemal Tamer July 1995 46 Pages The effect of eight weeks of multiple set progressive isotonic resistance (MSPIR) training and manual resistance (MR) training methods on the static and the dynamic leg strength and anaerobic power (vertical jump) were compared in forty seven high school boys aged 16-17 years. The subjects were classified into a control group (n=16), multiple set progressive isotonic resistance training group (n=16) and manual resistance group (n=15). Standardized field tests were used to measure the subject's performance. All measurements were accomplished within one week before and one week after traning. In applied procedure of multiple set progressive isotonic resistance (MSPIR) training method a barbell and free weights were used as a training equipment. Subjects exercised three sets of six repititions with a workload 80 - 85 % of one repitition maximum, rest interval between the sets being 90 sec. In applied procedure of manual resistance (MR) training method a barbell and free weights were also used. Subjects performed only one set to failure with a workload 60 - 65 % of 1 repitition maximum. mSubjects used knee extension/flexion in both training methods. One-way ANOVA, paired simple T-test and Tukey test were used to evaluate the effects of training. MSPIR training method and MR training method demonstrated a significant increase in dynamic leg strength (PO.05) over 8 weeks training period although they were not significantly different from each other. MSPIR training method and MR training method showed significant increase in the static leg strength (P< 0.05) but they didn't differ significantly from each other. And also both treatment groups showed a significant increase in anaerobic power (vertical jump) (P< 0.05) whereas they were not significantly different from each other. The control group demonstrated no significant change in any of the measured variable. Results indicated a significant gain (P < 0.05) in the static and the dynamic leg strength and anaerobic power by the MSPIR group and the MR group over that of the control group. However, no significant differences in the static and the dynamic leg strength and anaerobic power gain between the two experimental groups was demonstrated. Key words: Isotonic Training, Strength Training Vertical Jump, Anaerobic Power IV
