EFFECT OF SAND PLYOMETRIC AND RESISTANCE TRAINING ON SELECTED BIO MOTOR ABILITIES OF BASKETBALL PLAYERS

Susanta Kumar Panda and Alpana Panda

 ABSTRACT

The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect of Sand-Plyometric and Resistance training on selected Bio-Motor Performance of male Basketball Players. The subjects for this investigation (N=30) were collegiate athletes with at least two years of varsity experience. The experimental groups had received a six week sub-maximal training program, specially designed to accomplish the need of basketball players. All the subjects were measured primarily for selected Bio-Motor Performance variables by administering specific tests. Test-Retest method was administered to determine the effect of highly specialized short term Training program(s) on specific performance related parameters of athletes. For testing statistical significance, primarily the obtained data was treated with Analysis of Co-variance (ANCOVA) and further to access the significant improvement within training groups, Level of Significance Difference (LSD) was employed at 0.05 level of significance. Finally some of the Bio-Motor abilities like Coordinative Ability and Flexibility showed insignificant response to both the type of training modules. Whereas Explosive Strength, Acceleration Speed, Agility and Aerobic Capacity showed significant response to both the modules of training. Further in the light of statistical outcome, Plyometric Training has showed better biological response towards adaptation process of Bio-Motor Abilities in comparison to that of Resistance Training.

Keywords: Bio-Motor Ability, Sand-Plyometrics, Biological Response and Performance Adaptation.
