NCT06663683
Lead Sponsor
Riphah International University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to find which resistance training program hip thrust or back squats will enhance the performance that benefits the strength, power and speed in football players.

Detailed Description

In previous study there is less literature in determining the comparative effect of hip thrust and back squat resistance training on performance among footballer players. Therefore there is a dire need to explore the effects of these resistance training exercises. This study aims to observe the effect of hip thrust and back squat resistance training on strength, power and speed in footballer players.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1-Repetition Maximum6 weeks

1-Repetition Maximum is the gold standard for evaluating strength and defined as maximal weight that can be lifted once while maintaining the correct lifting technique. In 1-Repetition maximum eccentric actions are usually coupled with concentric actions which is more reflective of dynamic muscle actions that are commonly used in resistance training and of natural movement in most activities of sports and daily living. This measure has high test-retest reliability of ICC \>0.91

Body Fat Caliper Mass Measurement6 weeks

Body composition measurement is an important assessment technique in sports. Body composition parameters can provide valuable information regarding the amount and ratios of certain tissue components within the body depending on the instrumentation used. In general, parameters such as body fat percentage, fat-free mass, and lean body mass are measured directly, or estimated based on prediction equations or indirect measurements. Skinfold measurement utilizes a caliper to obtain a measure of subcutaneous adiposity (skinfold thickness) at selected sites throughout the body using a double fold of gripped skin

Countermovement Jump Test6 weeks

Countermovement Jump Test is commonly used for monitoring status (supercompensation on performance, strength and power muscle) from the analysis of bilateral mechanics and the ability to absorb ground reaction forces by the lower extremity. Conversely, it is expected that the vertical performance is strongly linked to the mechanical variables responsible for the force production, and in turn, the contribution of the elastic elements and joint stability. Intra rater class reliability of countermovement jump test=0.903 to 0.934

Sprint Test6 weeks

Sprint test require skill characteristics that involve the capacity to produce higher velocities to run a set distance within a lower time. Furthermore, this can require the capacity to generate maximal force and power in the direction of running. The profile can be divided into three phases and obtaining their mechanical descriptions can improve the athletes sporting performance and prevent injuries. The aim of this test is to determine quickness of ICC \>0.987
