Impact of maximal and submaximal resistance training on selected strength parameters among handball players


Author(s): Saurabh Tiwari

Abstract:
The aim of the present study is to find out the influence of maximal and sub maximal resistance training on throwing and jumping performance among Handball players. 45 male Handball players from the different schools located at Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh in the age ranged between 15-17 years were selected. The selected subjects were further divided into three groups namely Maximal Resistance Training Group (MRTG), Sub Maximal Resistance Training Group (SMRTG) and Control Group (CG), on random basis. Prior to the experimental treatments, all the subjects were measured of their strength parameters, leg strength and abdominal strength using vertical jump test and sit ups respectively. All the subjects were determined their 1 repetition maximum (1RM) of resistance trainings, half squat, biceps, triceps, bench press, and leg press. The submaximal resistance group was asked to perform 50 to 60 % of 1 RM and maximal resistance group was asked to perform 90 to 95% of 1 RM for 8 weeks. After completion of eight weeks experimental period, the subjects were measured of their strength variables selected. The results proved that both maximal and sub maximal resistance training improved leg strength and abdominal strength of Handball players compared to control group. The results also proved that maximal resistance training was found to be better than sub maximal resistance training in improving the leg strength and abdominal strength. The differences between sub maximal and maximal resistance training in improving the strength parameters were significant (P<0.05). It was concluded that the maximal and sub maximal resistance training can be included in the training schedule of the school level Handball players to improve strength parameters.
