Evaluation of explosive strength in U16 girls basketball players in Tirana of Albania
Basketball requires repeatedly different movements while taking brief breaks. Players must continuously improve the components of strength, speed, etc. Aim is to document the explosive strength through the test (CMJ) of U16 female basketball players under the impact of a recommended training of 11 weeks. Method: No. 60 young girls' basketball players will be randomly selected into experimental group (EX-No.31 aged 16.2 ± 0.4) and Control (CO-No.29 years 16.1 ± 0.3). Both groups were subjected to anthropometric measurements: Body Height (BH), Body Weight (BW) and Test countermovement jump (CMJ) before and after the implementation of the training program with the Experimental group for 11 weeks with three blocks of exercises; Instruments used to GRFP "Leonardo" offer objective diagnosis power, force, jump height and efficiency. Results: Descriptive statistics resulted in BH (EX -168.2 cm) and BH (CO- 169.2 cm), BW (EX 60.7 kg) and BW (CO 62.2 kg) and CMJ improvements were observed on EX-JH 0.03m after training while the control group had a decrease in JH of 0.01m. Conclusion: Coaches should standardize their work in terms of improving both explosive strength and monitoring short- and long-term training. These data are of great interest for the basketball training process.
