The effect of weight training and plyometric on the muscular ability and motor skills of middle and junior football players

Abstract

The study aimed to identify the effect of weight training and plyometric training on muscular
capacity, where the researcher used the experimental method based on two training curricula,
the first is a weight training curriculum and the second is a plyometric training curriculum
using a set of tests for muscular capacity and motor skills on a sample of 40 players from the
Kherrata Youth Club active in the second region of Algeria Central divided into 20 players
trained with weights and 20 with plyometric training.
The two experimental groups were subjected to a pre-test and then implemented the two
training curricula, and the implementation of the two curricula took nine weeks to develop
muscle capacity and some skills with three training units per week, thus the number of
training units for each group (27) units, and then the post-test was conducted.
The data were statistically analyzed using mean, standard deviation, t-test for correlated
samples, t-test for uncorrelated samples, percentage, and the law of rate of progression. The
researcher concluded that the training curriculum using weight training and plyometric
training to develop muscular capacity and some motor
