Abstract

The present study was to find out the effect of resistance training on power parameter among under graduate students. To achieve the purpose twenty under graduate female college students (n = 20) were selected as subjects and their age ranged between 18 and 25 years. They were divided in to two equal groups, each group consisted of ten (n = 10) subjects. The group I underwent resistance training (RTG), and group II acted as a control (CG) who did not exposed any special training apart from their regular activities. The training period of this study was limited to three days in a week for eight weeks. Explosive strength was selected as a criterion variable of this study and it was measured by using vertical jump. The analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was applied as a statistical tool. In all cases 0.05 level of confidence was fixed to test the significant, which was considered as in appropriate. It was concluded from the result of the study that there was a significant improvement (p ≤ 0.05) on explosive strength due to resistance training compared to control group.
