Abstract
ABSTRACT Introduction Lower limb strength training is one of the daily exercises of jumpers. Heavy squats are a standard method of lower body strength training. The squat is the only compound movement that directly trains “hip strength.” Objective This study aimed to analyze the effect of weighted squats on lower body strength training in long jumpers. Methods 20 jumpers were selected and randomly divided into a general training group and a weighted squat group. Then, the changes in standing triple jump, lateral jump, and Y-axis swing were analyzed before and after training under an experimental protocol. Results The performance of the weighted squat group was better than that of the general training group about the explosive power of the lower body of long jumpers. The data were statistically divergent (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the Y-balance test related to the lower limbs (P>0.05). Conclusion Squatting exercises with weight can improve the explosive power of lower limbs in jumpers. Long jumpers use a variety of jumping exercises to develop the rapid strength needed for their specialties, and this protocol can be added to training for a better athletic outcome.
