A Study of the Effect of Functional Training on Lower Limb Strength in Basketball-Specific College Students

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This study adopts the literature method, experiment interview method, and mathematical and statistical method. Functional training methods to promote the lower limb strength of basketball-specific college students as well as traditional strength training methods were developed in combination with basketball specialities. Lower limb explosive strength, lower limb maximal strength, and lower limb muscular endurance were selected as test indexes. After a period of 10 weeks of experimental intervention, the two groups of subjects were compared with each other in the pre-test and post-test. The results were as follows: Inter-group comparative analysis revealed that there was a significant difference between the two groups of subjects in the lower limb explosive strength and lower limb muscular endurance (p < 0.05), and there was no significant difference between the lower limb maximal strength (p > 0.05). Comparison within the group revealed that the experimental group’s growth in lower limb explosive strength and lower limb muscular endurance was much higher than that of the control group, while the control group’s growth in lower limb maximal strength was higher than that of the experimental group. Conclusion: (1) Both functional strength training and traditional strength training can improve the lower limb strength level of basketball college students; (2) Functional strength training is more efficient than traditional strength training for lower limb explosive strength and lower limb muscular endurance, while traditional strength training is more efficient in the improvement of lower limb maximal strength; (3) In the future lower body strength training for basketball college students, the two training methods should be combined efficiently.
