Effects of Resistance Sprint Training With and Without Power Training on Sprint and Agility Performance

December 14, 2023 updated by: Sehat Medical Complex

Effects of Resistance Sprint Training With and Without Power Training on Sprint and Agility Performance in Football Players

This study will be randomized clinical trial will be used to get expected outcomes. Hence under ethical consideration athletes of Pakistan football federation will go under the selection criteria and chosen voluntarily to participate in the study. Data will be collected with non-probability convenient sampling technique and 40 football players will be participated in this study. Participates will be divided into two groups with randomization process. 20 athletes will be in each group. Group A will be treated with squats jumps, change of direction speed, countermovement jump, bench press, Romanian deadlift and barbell squats, resistance band sprints, stair sprints and weighted sled pulls and Group B will be treated with squats jumps, change of direction speed, countermovement jump, resistance band sprints, stairs sprints and weighted sled pulls. These exercises will be given in 3 sets with 10 repetitions in each set. Pre and post interventions measures will be taken on 1st day and at 6th week there will be 3 sessions in a week. SPSS version 25 will be used to analyze the data.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Football is a sport which is of high-intensity intermittent game that requires players to be physically capable of coping with high-intensity movements, having repeated changes of direction, sprints, and accelerations/decelerations, with complex and physically demanding technical different actions Developing and loading strength techniques in football come from knowledge of game performance and its specific components and limitation components. Most of the important factors in football are explosiveness activities such as changing direction, jumping, sprinting, and kicking. Working on these explosive performances have been found after strength training that improved the available force of muscular contraction in appropriate muscle groups. Vertical jump and sprint performances are interlinked with maximal muscular strength in football players and the heavy resistance training can also increase running economy and which ultimately increases the aerobic performance of the athlete

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Resisted sprinting speeds at 10-30 m
Time Frame: Change from Baseline at 6 weeks
The athlete sprints a distance of 10-30m while pushing or pulling against resistance. This resistance can be provided by various means, such as sled, resistance band, or a partner holding onto a harness worn by athlete. A study suggested that the magnitude of the correlation coefficient between speed-test results and match parameters was considered as small (0.1 ≤ r < 0.3), moderate (0.3 ≤ r < 0.5), large (0.5 ≤ r < 0.7), very large (0.7 ≤ r < 0.9), and nearly perfect (r ≥ 0.9)
Change from Baseline at 6 weeks
Change of direction speed (COD) testing
Time Frame: Change from Baseline at 6 weeks
This test consists of four 5-m sections marked with cones set at 100° angles. Three maximal attempts were performed with a 5-min rest interval between attempts. Starting from a standing position with the front foot placed 0.3 m behind the first pair of photocells i.e., starting line athletes ran and changed direction as quickly as possible until crossing the second pair of photocells placed 20 m from the starting line .A study suggests a near perfect correlation between the COD (r=0.92)
Change from Baseline at 6 weeks
Squat jumps (SJ)
Time Frame: Change from Baseline at 6 weeks
In the SJ, a static position with a 90° knee flexion angle was maintained for 2 seconds before every jump attempt. No preparatory movement was allowed and an experienced researcher visually inspected for proper technique. A study suggested that jumping tests had high correlation coefficients with the principal component (r = 0.76-0.87.
Change from Baseline at 6 weeks
Countermovement Jump (CMJ)
Time Frame: Change from Baseline at 6 weeks
In the CMJ, athletes were instructed to perform a downward movement followed by a complete extension of the lower limbs and were allowed to freely determine the amplitude of the countermovement to avoid changes in their jumping coordination pattern. Participants were instructed to assume the same body position at takeoff and landing on both squat and counter movement jumps) the CMJ tests had a high correlation coefficient with the principal component (r=0.76-0.87)
Change from Baseline at 6 weeks
Horizontal Jump (HJ)
Time Frame: Change from Baseline at 6 weeks
The athlete stands behind a line marked on the ground with feet slightly apart. A two-foot take-off and landing is used, with swinging of the arms and bending of the knees to provide forward drive. The subject attempts to jump as far as possible, landing on both feet without falling backwards. Three attempts are allowed a study suggested a Horizontal jump assessment(r=-0.7-0.86)
Change from Baseline at 6 weeks
