Comparative study of eccentric training vs. Plyometric training on lower limb muscle power in young adult college basketball players
Main Article Content
Abstract
To determine what type of training, eccentric or plyometric, presents better results on lower extremity muscle power assessed through jumping and speed in young adult college basketball players. Experimental, longitudinal study, consisting of a sample of 24 subjects, who were divided into 3 groups: one of control (GC), plyometric training (GEP) and eccentric training (GEE). The selection for the members of each group (GC, GEP and GEE) was random, by means of a simple lottery. The experimental groups participated in training 3 times a week, for 20 minutes, while the control group only did their traditional basketball training. The horizontal jump test was used to assess the jump, while the 30-meter speed test was used for speed. The comparison between groups was made through the analysis of variance (ANOVA) between the groups of plyometric training, eccentric training, and control, for the 30-meter speed evaluations the results showed significant differences (p<0.05) in the eccentric training group, for the horizontal jump test it was not possible to report significant differences between groups (p>0.05). Unlike the plyometric training proposal, the eccentric intervention proposal increased lower extremity muscle power to a greater extent in basketball players, which was evidenced by a decrease in time during the speed test of 30 meters. Keywords: plyometric training, eccentric, basketball, power.
