| الملخص: | Medicine ball training has been studied to determine if it can help to improve
physical performance and skills performance of basketball players. This study
investigated the effects of eight weeks of medicine ball training on physical
performance and basketball skill performance among male basketball players aged 18
to 24 years. 28 subjects were recruited into two groups, namely the experimental group
(EG) and the control group (CG), with 14 subjects in each group (EG: mean age was
21.25 ±1.34 and CG: mean age was 20.52 ±1.77). To detect differences within and
between the study groups, repeated-measures ANOVA was used. The analyses
demonstrated significant pre-test, mid-test and post-test effects on physical
performance. All the physical performance fitness variables examined were significant
with p<0.01 and the skill performance analyses showed significant differences in all
variables with p<0.01. The experimental group (EG) that received medicine ball
training showed improvements in physical performance, which was expressed in the
form of percentage in the following variables: Overhead Medicine Ball Throw
(OHMBT) (5.11%), Standing Long Jump (SLJ) (4.52%), Sprinting 20 m (SPRINT)
(1.34%), Agility T-Test (AGILITY) (3.49%), Vertical Jump (VJ) (6.45%), and Back
and Leg Dynamometer (BLD) (16.40%). Moreover, this study found that the
experimental group that received medicine ball training showed improvement in basketball skill performance as well, which was expressed in the form of percentage
in the following measures: Control Dribble (CD) (2.14%), Defensive Movement (DM)
(3.22%), Passing (PASS) (6.83%), and Speed Spot Shooting (SSS) (13.29%). This research suggests that incorporating medicine ball training into regular exercise
routines can significantly increase physical performance and basketball skills. Coaches
are advised to include medicine ball workouts into players' daily training regimes. The
incorporation of medicine ball workouts that align with specific skill work can improve
basketball skill performance. The recommended medicine ball workout program
provides a useful framework for evaluating improvements in physical performance
and basketball skill performance among basketball players. |
