“…The interpretation of these results belongs to the use of trained squash players who have 2 or more years of competition experience at the international standards by Jones et al [29]. These findings are equally supported by Krasilshchikov, (2014) who observed almost similar results on the Malaysain Squash players at the National level equally supports these results [30].…”

The purpose of the study was to compare resistance and squash training on speed, explosive power, muscular endurance and flexibility among college male students. Nineteen college male students 20-22 years divided into two groups, resistance training group (RT, n = 10) and squash training group (SQT, n = 9). RT group performed several weight machines. The SQT group undertook squash skills in addition to participation in tournaments. The training lasted for 6 weeks, 4 days/ week, 30 min per session. Subjects were tested on body composition and physical fitness before and after training. One Repetition Maximum (1RM) was used to decide maximum strength of RT group. Means, SD, independent and Paired t-test utilized with P ≤ 0.05. The RT group exhibited greater mean difference than SQT group in BM (P = 0.032) and BMI (P = 0.013). No mean differences were observed between groups in all physical fitness parameters (P ≥ 0.05). However, when after-training-tests were matched with beforetraining-tests in each group independently, RT decreased significantly in 50 m sprint time by 6% (P = 0.008), SLJ by 6.3% (P = 0.004) and sit and reach by 12.4% (P = 0.012) but, no change in sit-ups (P ≥ 0.05). While, SQT showed elevation (P = 0.003) in sit and reach of 19%, no changes was seen in the other fitness parameters (P ≥ 0.05). It was concluded that RT group had training effect on speed, explosive power and flexibility, while SQT group showed training effect in flexibility.

“…Success in achieving badminton at all levels of competition depends on many physical factors. Characteristics of badminton as a branch of a very heavy sport [17] [18] [19], requires elite players to perform above the limits of their speed, agility, flexibility, endurance and strength [20]. The match is usually won by athletes who have a combination of perfect physical conditions, mental attitude, courage, intelligence, and player technical skills and tactical efficiency [21].…”

This study aims to describe the anthropometric and motor performance profile of junior male badminton athletes in South Kalimantan. The model of this research is descriptive quantitative. The used method is survey with data retrieval technique using test and measurement. This research was conducted on 14 badminton athletes from the Students Education and Training Center (PPLP) of South Kalimantan Province were 14.86 ± 1.41 years and 14.00 ± 1.63 years. Data were collected by measuring the anthropometry of athletes including height, weight, body mass index and foot length. In addition, motor performance data collection is done among hand eye coordination, agility, speed and aerobic performance such as VO2 Max. Data were analyzed using mean and standard deviation. The mean values of anthropometry (height, weight, body mass index and foot length) of male badminton players in this study were 162.43 ± 4.69 cm, weight 53.14 ± 9.65 kg, body mass index of 20.13 ± 3.36 kg m2, foot length of 25.06 ± 0.89 cm. The mean values of anthropometry (height, weight, body mass index and foot length) of female badminton athletes in this study were height 155.75 ± 5.74 cm, weight 55.0 ± 5.87 kg, body mass index 22.78 ± 3.27 kg m2, foot length 24.33 ± 0.79 cm. Meanwhile for the physical condition of male badminton players (aerobic endurance, speed, agility, hand eye coordination) are as follows: aerobic endurance 37.12 ± 6.54 ml / kg / minute, speed 3.65 ± 0.56 s, agility 6.98 ± 0.44 s, eye hand coordination 12.71 ± 3.83 times. While the average value of female badminton players is as follows: aerobic endurance 26.10 ± 1.40 ml / kg / minute, speed 4.06 ± 0.24 s, agility 8.23 ± 0.15 s, hand eye coordination 9.00 ± 2.94 times. Badminton players in South Kalimantan have an average anthropometry score and lower motor performance compared to badminton players Nigeria, Brazil and the Philippines. The results of this study can provide information to the coaches and sport scientist in designing and developing training programs to improve the performance of badminton player.

Introduction. Some certain well-established training protocols exist for developing physical and physiological demands of a track cyclist. But still there is controversy on the effectiveness of combined training protocols. The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of 4-week concurrent eccentric cycling and plyometric training on cycling performance of male cyclists at the pre-competitive phase.Material and methods. A paired study design was applied to 15 young (15.04 ± 1.01 yrs) Indian male track cyclists to assess the effects of proposed concurrent training protocol on body composition and various physical fitness parameters.Results. Hydration status [TBW (~1%) and ICW (~1%)], glycogen content (~3%), muscular strength (~6-11%), trunk flexibility (~5%), anaerobic power output (~9%), endurance capacity (~5%), acceleration (~7%), leg explosive strength (~7%) and agility (~2%) were found to be improved significantly after the 4-week concurrent training protocol.Conclusions. The concurrent intervening physical training protocol was intended to increase muscular hypertrophy, peripheral factor gradient, glycolytic and oxidative enzyme capacity with proper neuromuscular coordination which may ultimately help the cyclists to pedal at a faster rate with higher muscular power output even for longer time.
