ATHLETES' SPECIFIED STRENGTH PARAMETERS AND THE IMPACT OF ASSISTED SPRINT TRAINING

The purpose of the study was to find out the effect of assisted sprint training on selected strength parameters among athletes. To achieve the purpose of the present study, thirty athletes from Montfort school, Yercaud, Salem District, Tamilnadu were selected as subjects at random and their ages ranged from 14 to 17 years. The subjects were divided into two equal groups at random. The subjects were divided into two equal groups of fifteen subjects each. Group I acted as Experimental Group (Assisted sprint training) and Group II acted as Control Group. Analysis of covariance was computed. It was observed that the twelve weeks of experimental group have significantly improved the selected strength parameters of athletes.
