prospective student profile.
1 INTRODUCTION
The level of adolescent fitness in Indonesia has not
been described holistically or partially, because there
are no institutions that manage, such as American
Alliance for health, physical education, and dance
(AAHPERD), prospective student profiles can be
drawn from the cognitive aspect, for the
psychomotor and physical aspects. There is no data
that can be used as a reference for new admissions,
so that the test is held, although the term does not
match the component of the test performed, because
the measured aspect is the physical aspect.
The characteristic profile of prospective students
based on chronological age is in adolescence period,
female at intermediate level at Malang volleyball
school is average between 14-18 years old,
chronological age is adolescence period.
According
to Sugiyanto (1997) “adolescence period for women
is ages 10 to 18 years, men ages 12 to 20 years.“
Adolescence is a period of rapid growth,
characterized by complex biological developments,
including growth acceleration, changes in body
shape proportions, changes in body composition,
maturation of primary and secondary sex features,
development of the respiratory and cardiac system,
and development the nervous and endocrine systems
that initiate and coordinate bodily, sexual and
physiological changes.
Sugiyanto (1997), states “in
hot areas (equatorial) tend to be faster the first
maturity of reproduction compared with cold areas
(north or south).“
Esppenchade and Heler (1960),
states “Climate is one of the long-term
environmental factors that contribute to racial
differences.
The mean age of menarse (early
puberty) of Afro-Americans at age 12.5 years,
Europe at age 12.8 years.
Asia tends to grow at the
same time as Africa, especially in big
children.
Tempo growth is faster for Africa than
Europe in skeletal maturity and development of
motion.“
Rapid growth is very influential on changes in
motion appearance in adolesence, Sugiyanto (1997)
states that changes in the appearance of motion tend
to follow changes in body size, strength and
physiological functions.
Differences in the
appearance of basic motion skills between the sexes
are increasing, boys show a steady increase, while
girls show a meaningless increase, even tending to
decline after age of menstruation.
Coordination and balance in girls is no longer
developed after the age of 14 years while boys still
show improvement along with chronological age.
In
general, the improvement of motion appearance

before adolescence and adolescence has been
explained. Sugiyanto (1997), adolescence period has
increased the appearance of motion, such as running
fast, running long distance, high jump and so
on.
This quantitative increase is part of the ongoing
growth, especially the rapid growth in adolescence,
which produces strength and endurance, as well as
the contribution of the coordinating element
undoubtedly in support of skills.
Adolescence period is a period where humans
experience a period of biological and psychological
growth, physical growth that goes well in
accordance with chronological age is very influential
on the appearance of motion.
Women also
experience growth and increased appearance of
motion but are slower and tend to be no increase
than men, but should be an important note in giving
physical exercise should pay special attention to
athletes, taking into account the form of exercise,
and the principle of practice.
It is recommended that
physical exercise during adolescence, especially
female exercises using aerobic and anaerobic energy
systems, physical exercise is more emphasized on
increased cardiovascular endurance due to increased
cardiovascular adolence.
The adolescence period is
an excellent and appropriate time to improve motion
abilities, as Sugiyanto et al (1997) points out,
adolescence is a great time to improve the ability to
perfect the movement, and refine the skills of
sporting activities widely.
Everyone can learn to
assess his abilities and choose exercises, sports, and
other useful physical activities throughout his life.
The profile of the average sports student
candidate is at the age of 17-18 years into the final
adolescence category toward early adulthood,
theoretically in this phase of human being growth of
height approaching the maximal point, the
development of motion has almost experienced
maturity, the development of physical condition also
increase this phase.
So this study is expected to
illustrate the profile of prospective students viewed
from the point of view of physical conditions and
also describes the profile of the late adolescents
toward early adulthood.

3.2 Discussion
3.2.1 Agility
The agility of SBMPTN and Mandiri students in
2015-2016 are shown to be in very good criteria,
falling from 6 to 1, and stable 2 independent, this
data shows the low agility of new student
candidates, whereas agility is a key skill required for
football success (Fiorilli, 2017) courses are
presented in the curriculum of sports majors, so that
will have difficulty and can be assumed with low
agility, the performance of football games is also
low.
3.2.2 Limb muscle strength
Leg muscle limbs of prospective students of sports
in both SBMPTN and Mandiri tracks in 2015-2016
is in very good criteria, rose from 11 to 12, and
Mandiri is stable 2, this shows the muscle limb
strength of low-potential sports students. If the
prospective student becomes a sports student, they
will have difficulty, because the average practice
course requires good leg muscle power to produce
good movement performance. Required proper
training (Andre Filipovic, 2016) two-session
exercise Electrostimulation Program on Strength
dynamic whole body combined with 30 jump squats
(12 minutes) simultaneously into 6-7 soccer practice
sessions per week and one match is enough to
improve strength, running and skipping maximum
performance effectively, and kicking skills in
professional soccer players.
Increasing the leg muscle power of prospective
students need to be improved if they are later
accepted to be a sports student candidate, because
leg muscle power has a positive correlation to the
ability to kick football and sports that require leg
muscle power.
3.2.3 Hand-eye coordination
Hand-eye coordination of prospective sport students
of track SBMPTN and Mandiri in 2015-2016,
decreased in very good criteria from 118 to 2, and
Mandiri is stable 1, should the candidate of sports
students have good coordination (Sugiyanto, 1997)
increased coordination in male students goes hand in
hand with increasing the chronological age. The low
coordination of prospective students will have an
impact on the performance of the sport, one of the
swimming courses, because an athlete of a trained
swimmer who performs the observations can
perform an effective propulsive movement resulting
ICSSHPE 2017 - 2nd International Conference on Sports Science, Health and Physical Education
150

in higher swimming speeds by adjusting the
coordination of the right limb movements with
shorter or less sliding glucose or arm action with
overlapping legs results in a higher overlap index.
(Marek Strzala, 2013)
Motion coordination is an important part of
improving motion performance, motion performance
is much needed for sports students, because 60% of
the sport‘s curriculum structure is practice.
3.2.4 Abdominal muscles strength
Strength of abdominal muscles of prospective
students of sports track SBMPTN and Mandiri in
2015-2017 in very well criteria from 811 to 26, and
mandiri track rose 10 to 19, muscle strength should
be in line with the maturity of sex hormones in men,
(Sugiyanto, 1997) which closely occurs between
forces with the release of hormones in men,
testosterone hormone has a positive effect on the
increase of muscle strength, so it should be in
adolescent period of increased abdominal muscle
strength in line with the development and maturity
of men’s secondary sex. This development can be
utilized for exercise (Sumiaki Maeo, 2013)
abdoment bracing proved to be one of the most
effective exercise methods for abdominal muscles
although compared to dynamic exercises involving
flexion / abdominal extension movements.
3.2.5 Strength of Arm muscles
The muscle strength of the prospective sport
student‘s arms of the SBMPTN and Mandiri tracks
in 2015-2017 has very good criteria, rising from 66
to 68, and Mandiri hitting 50 to 25, the results of this
test have been written (Sugiyanto, 1997) that men
experience rapid, physical changes, strength.
Adaptation exercises have influence with
practice closer to 1 RM person.
Alternatively, the
increase in muscle size appears to be driven more by
higher exercise volume, at least to a certain
threshold, (Schoenfeld, 2016) strength training
should have started from the initial adolescent
period, exercises with 1 RM principle and intesitas
can increase muscle mass.
Combining the loading
strategy may have a synergistic effect on strength
and hypertrophics (Schoenfeld, 2016).
Drop set
resistance training initially performed with higher
load increases muscle activity and intramuscular
hypoxia during subsequent exercise with 75% 1RM
burden among trained individuals (Masahiro Goto,
2016).
3.2.6 Cardiovascular endurance
Cardiovascular endurance of students of SBMPTN
and Mandiri sports track in 2015-2016 criteria is
very good, decrease from 6 to 1, and stable 1 for
Mandiri track, this result has not yet shown any
exercises done to improve cardiovascular endurance
because (Sugiyanto, 1997) the strengthening
exercise for better cardiovascular resistance should
begin earlier, an increase in adolescence is higher
than adults. The results of the study (Stöggl, 2017)
among youth in accordance with the study of adults
who showed the importance of upper body strength
and endurance that support the performance of
motion. Low cardiovascular endurance can be due to
poor physical activity and not yet know the right
exercise, while reviewing many studies that can be
used as a reference to improve cardiovascular
endurance exercise, Hypoxic training methods that
utilize height training, both in nature / terrestrial and
artificial, has been established as an effective means
of improving oxygen transport, RBC volume, and
VO2max, given a sufficiently high dose of
“altitude” and duration, (Jacob A. Sinex, 2015)
4 CONCLUSIONS
The best profile of tested prospective students is the
SBMPTN line 2015, but when compared to the
benchmark references, the average test result is in
the medium category. So it takes proper exercise to
improve the physical condition, so that with good
physical condition can affect the performance of
motion.
