Bonus jump with both feet After the preparatory weighted rope jump training (WRJT) for 1 week, subjects in experimental group followed jumping training by repetition method 3 days in a week for 8 weeks in addition to the routine taekwondo training program. 3 sets per week with 30 seconds training duration and 30 seconds rest duration. with progressive increase in the intensity and no. of sets. |
- digital Hand grip dynamometer [ Time Frame: 8 week ]Handgrip Dynamometers are instruments for measuring the maximum isometric strength of the hand and forearm muscles, used for testing handgrip strength of athletes involved in strength training. the person applies maximum force on the dynamometer by griping. the reading is noted for both right and left hand.
- agility T-test [ Time Frame: 8 week ]
Purpose of agility t- test was to see directional changes in athletes and includes forward, lateral, and backwards running. 3 cones were arranged in the shape of T. Starting point of test was A and ending point was also A. Distance between cone A and B was 10 yards and distance between cone B to C and B to D was 5 yards As the stop watch started, the player started running from point A to point B and touched the cone with right hand. Then started sideways running from cone B to cone C and touched the cone with left hand and again sideways running from cone C to D and touched the cone D with right hand.
Males (seconds) Females (seconds) Excellent < 9.5 < 10.5 Good 9.5 to 10.5 10.5 to 11.5 Average 10.5 to 11.5 11.5 to 12.5 Poor > 11.5 > 12.5 Again coming back to cone B touching it with left hand, player started backward running towards cone A. This is the finishing line of T- test. This test was performed 3 times and average score was recorded in seconds.
- 50 meter sprint test [ Time Frame: 8 week ]Purpose of sprint test was to check speed and acceleration of athlete. In this test, 50 meter distance was measured by measuring tape. Cone A was placed at starting point A and cone B at the finishing point. As the timer started, player started running with speed from cone A to cone B. This test was performed 3 times and the average score was recorded in seconds.
- Sargent jump test [ Time Frame: 8 week ]The aim of sargent jump test was to assess the strength of lower limb. In this test we need a measuring tape and a chalk. Player was instructed to stand with his right shoulder to the side of the wall and touched the wall with his right hand. This was his normal reach height that was point A. In second part of this test player was instructed to take high jump and touched the wall as far as his can reach. This was marked as B. In the end difference of point A and B was taken (B-A). Test readings were taken 3 times and the jumping height was documented in cm.
- Sit and reach test [ Time Frame: 8 week ]Sit and reach test was performed to know the flexibility of low back and hamstring muscles. In this test we need a box and a measuring tape. Player was instructed to sit on the floor with shoes removed, knees straight and feet touching the box. Instructions were given to bend forward and move the fingers on the box. Distance was measured from the tip of fingers to the edge of box. Test was performed 3 times and average score was recorded in cm
- Yo Yo endurance test [ Time Frame: 8 week ]The purpose of Yo-Yo endurance test was to evaluate the cardiorespiratory endurance (aerobic fitness). In this test we need 3 cones and audio of yo yo endurance test. Distance between cone A to cone B was 5meter which is the resting time for 10s. From cone B to C distance was 20 meter. Starting point of Test was cone B. As the audio started in 5 seconds with beep sound, players started running from point B to point C and back to point B without taking rest. From point B to A was recovery time for players and as the next beep sound heard, the test again started. This test consist of different levels and it depends on players' endurance that how effectively they can perform this test. Players can quit at any level if he got exhausted. Warnings are given if athletes do not reach the starting and finishing line with the sound of beep. Scores recorded as levels.
