The influence of the complex training method on maximal isometric force production of junior basketball players

Abstract

During the period of ten weeks, a study has been conducted on the effects of a complex training method on the maximal isometric muscle force, its peaking time, and the rate of force development in the semi-squat test. The participants of the study were twenty junior basketball players (average age 16.4+/-0.7; mean body height 186.2cm+/-9.2; mean body weight 75,4+/-7.5kg; mean body fat percentage 12,83%+/-1.15). The participants were divided into experimental (n=10) and control group (n=10). The experimental group, besides technical-tactical training sessions, had additional complex training, while the control group had technical-tactical training sessions only. At the final testing, the results of maximal isometric muscle force and the explosive power index, have significantly improved in the experimental group, while the control group did not make significant progress. There were no significant changes in the maximal isometric muscle force's peak time at the final testing. The study findings indicate that application of the complex training method has positive effects on the development of maximal isometric force, and the rate of force development.

The Effect of Combined Strength Training on Vertical Jump Performance in Young Basketball Players: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

“…As a result, 1,031 articles were excluded, and 25 articles were evaluated in full detail according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria through literature review and other screening processes. After the study selection process, although 11 articles (4,26,28,42–44,54,55,57,59,67) met the eligibility criteria (Figure 1) 2 articles (10,36) were excluded from this systematic review and meta-analysis because they did not meet the quality criteria. As a result, a meta-analysis was carried out with 11 studies.…”

“…Different training methods contained traditional strength training and basketball training. Young male basketball players were 82% of the participants (4,26,28,42,43,54,55,59,67). Although one study was conducted with young female basketball players (57), the other study was performed with a mixed group of participants (44).…”

Isometric Resistance Training Effects on Lower Limb Muscle Activity

“…This reduces the error of the results and ensures the reliability of the experimental results. 10 We use the ternary phase diagram to analyze the angle distribution of the hip, knee, and ankle joints. The study found that 16 subjects had less variability in CMJ movements.…”
