Differences between circuit training using a ball and not using a ball on increasing power, strength, and cardiovascular endurance in football athletes

Abstract

This research focuses on finding out the differences in the effect of providing circuit training using a ball and not using a ball on the physical components of athletes in football clubs. This research uses a pretest-posttest comparison group research design. The subjects of this research were PORMA FC football players who were divided into 2 groups with different treatments. The data collection technique uses test and measurement techniques for each variable consisting of a. Digital Jump Meter; b. Leg Dynamometer; and c. MFT. The results of research based on data processing using SPSS 26 show that all variables obtained the sig. values of < 0.05, which means that circuit training using a ball and not using a ball has an effect on the process of improving each component of physical condition but is different for each component. Apart from that, the discussion regarding the differences in the effect of circuit training using a ball and not using a ball obtained equal variance assumed with the Sig value for Power 0.743, Strength 0.455, and VO2Max 0.001. It can be concluded that there is a significant difference between circuit training using a ball and circuit training without a ball on cardiovascular endurance. However, there were no significant differences in the physical condition components of power and strength.
