Abstract
Background and Aims: Functional strength training, as a new training method, has now been widely applied in professional sports and competitive sports, and other fields. Changing the traditional basketball strength training methods has become an urgent task at present. However, in the field of basketball sports training, there are relatively few related training applications to improve the jumping quality of basketball players. Therefore, in this study, adolescent basketball players with a certain competitive level were selected as the research subjects. By applying functional strength training methods, the influence of functional strength training on jumping quality was explored. Theoretical analysis and experimental verification were conducted on the application of functional strength training in basketball practice for the reference of coaches and athletes. In the hope of contributing a little to the process of promoting the scientific training of basketball players.
Methodology: Thirty male athletes from the men's basketball team at China Jiuquan Vocational and Technical College were recruited and divided into three groups: weight training, functional strength training, and a control group (n=10 per group). Leg muscle strength was measured using high jump tests at baseline, after 4 weeks, and after 8 weeks of training. Data were analyzed using SPSS software to calculate the mean differences and standard deviations across groups.
Results: These findings indicate that weight training and functional strength training play essential roles in enhancing jumping performance by improving take-off speed, endurance, and whole-body coordination.
Conclusion: These findings indicate that weight training and functional strength training play essential roles in enhancing jumping performance by improving take-off speed, endurance, and whole-body coordination. Comprehensive training programs should integrate strength, speed, and coordination exercises alongside technical skill development to optimize performance.
