Title

EFFECT OF SIX WEEK PLYOMETRIC TRAINING ON AGILITY, AEROBIC ENDURANCE AND POWER IN FOOTBALL PLAYERS AT PARUL UNIVERSITY: AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY

Abstract

Background: Football is an intermittent sport characterized by repeated high-intensity efforts (i.e., accelerations, decelerations, and changes of direction and strokes) during a variable period of time (i.e., on average 90 min). increases in power and efficiency due to plyometrics may increase agility training objectives and plyometric activities have been used in sports such as football, football, soccer or other sporting events that agility may be useful for their athletes. Hence plyometric helps to improve agility, power and endurance among football players. Aim: To know the effect of plyometric training on agility, aerobic endurance and power in elite football player. Method: Total number of subject (n=60) were taken from Parul university. All 60 participants were playing football as a sports activity. All these participants were assessed for inclusion and exclusion criteria. The ones falling into the inclusion criteria were then asked to sign a written consent form. These participants were then divided into 2 groups in a randomized manner by picking up chit from the bowl. Group-A consist of 30 football players which comprised the experimental group and Group-B had another 30 participants and they received normal warm-up exercise like, jogging, cycling and stretching of lower limb muscle. Participants were between the age group of 16 - 22 years, free of lower extremity injuries, and were not included in any type of plyometric training at the time of the study. All participants were asked not to change or increase their current exercise habits during the course of the study. The plyometric training group participated in a 6-week training program performing a variety of plyometric exercises designed for the lower extremity, while the control group did not participate in any plyometric exercises. All participants were instructed not to start any lower extremity strengthening programs during the 6-week period and to only perform activities of normal daily living. Prior to the study, procedures and guidelines were presented orally and in written form. Plyometric treatment was given twice per week to allow for sufficient recovery between workouts as recommended by researchers. Pre intervention assessment were taken in both the groups and after the training protocol post assessment data were collected. Result: Participants in the Plyometric group (Group A) showed a statistical significance improvement in the agility, aerobic capacity and power compared to the convention group (Group B). Group A showed statistical significance in agility with p=0.036, Aerobic capacity with p=0.000 and power with p=0.005. Conclusion: The study concluded that when plyometric is compared to conventional training or routine day to day activities shows greater improvement in agility, aerobic capacity and power among football players. Hence plyometric can be an integral part of training program for football players.
