Aim: The purpose of the study was to analyze the explosive strength variables of legs of athletes of different sports. Method: The study was conducted on 45 male players (fifteen handball players; age: 15.80 ± 0.68 years, fifteen football players; age: 16.13 ± 0.83 years & fifteen basketball players; age: 16.40 ± 0.83 years) of Punjab State coaches in Patiala (India).Results: The results of the study shows that the basketball players performed better in explosive strength parameters like the squat jump flight time, squat jump height, counter movement jump height, counter movement flight time, peak power (45-60sec) and mean power (0-60sec), then the football and handball players. The least performance was recorded by the handball players. The results also indicate that there was a highly significant correlation exists among the various explosive strength variables. Conclusion: The explosive strength variables measurement could be used by coaches to plan or adjust the training program of athletes.
