Volume : II, Issue : X, November - 2012 COMPARATIVE EFFECTS OF PLYOMETRIC, CIRCUIT TRAINING AND CIRCUIT BREAKER PROGRAMMES ON SELECTED MOTOR COMPONENTS OF SCHOOL LEVEL BASKETBALL PLAYERS. XAVIER MARIA RAJ DOI : 10.9780/22307850, Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : The purpose of the study was to compare the effects of plyometrics, circuit
training and circuit breaker programmes on selected motor components of school level
basketball players. For the purpose of the study; four groups: three experimental groups
viz: plyometrics training group (A), circuit training group (B), and circuit breaker
programme group (C) and the fourth group served as the control group. Random group
design was employed. Reliability coefficients for the test- re- test scores on selected
motor components: leg power (standing broad jump) 0.99, shoulder and arm power (two
hand medicine ball put test) 0.98, muscular endurance (burpee test) 0.99, speed (50
yards dash) 0.98, and agility(right boomerang run) 0.97 were selected to collect the
data.
To find out the comparative effects of plyometric training, circuit training and
circuit breaker programme on selected motor components of school level Basketball
players, analysis of covariance was employed, the proposed hypothesis was tested at .05
level of confidence. The result revealed significant improvement in most of the selected
motor components. All the three experimental groups were effective in improving the
explosive strength of the subjects (leg power, shoulder and arm power). The plyometric
and circuit breaker programme groups were comparatively better than the circuit
training group in improving the leg power and arm and shoulder power of the subjects. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : XAVIER MARIA RAJ, (2012).
