This study aims to determine (1) The effect of squat jump training on leg muscle power (2) Knowing the ability of mawashi geri kicks in Shorinji Kempo athletes (3) Improving the ability of mawashi geri kicks in teenage Shorinji Kempo athletes.

This research design is an experimental research with the pre-test, post-test design method. The total sampling in this study was 20 athletes.

In this study, there was an increase in squat jump and leg power exercises in the use of mawasi geri kicks of adolescent athletes. The results of the Paired Sample Test on the right leg showed a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.000 < 0.05. There is a difference in values with pre-test results while the average gets post-test or 4.5433-5.3783 =-0.835, with a difference and effect between-1.03552 >-0.63448. Against the results on the left limb there is a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.001< 0.05. As for the difference in the average value of the pre-test with the average post-test results or 4.7950-5.4300 =-0.635, there is a difference in influence between-0.87244 to-0.39756. The influence on the test is due to the provision of the exercise program as many as 16 times using the standing broad jump test with validity of 0.657 and reliability of 0.520 so that the muscle strength of the mawasi geri kick leg increases.
