For the purpose of the study 30 school girls from Kendra vidyalaya higher secondary school (2), kalapet were randomly selected and their age ranged between 12 to 14 years. Subjects included in the study were not controlled with regard to their life style, diet and habits which may have influenced their performance. They were divided into two groups A, C with 15 subjects in each group. Group A was treated with plyometric training and group C was kept under control group. The subjects of group A underwent training for eight weeks with the duration of 45 minutes. The training was started at 6.30am and it was given for 3 days per week. The pre test and post test on motor ability components was measured using standing broad jump, 50 meters dash test. The data was statistically analyzed by using ANCOVA to find out the significant difference among the two groups. The finding of the study revealed that there was a beneficial effect on explosive power, speed for the experimental groups when compared to the control group. | Keywords : | | |
