Abstract

The purpose of this research is to find out the effect of plyometric training on the leg muscle power enhancement of the women’s volleyball junior athletes at Yuso Yogyakarta. This research employed experiment methods with the design of “two group’s pre-test post-test design”. The population in this research were the women’s volleyball junior athletes at Yuso Yogyakarta which consist of 30 athletes. The sampling technique was purposive sampling, with following criteria: (1) The chosen athletes have been training more than three years; (2) The athletes were between 14 to 18 years old; (3) The athletes were able to participate in the conducted pre-test, treatment, and post-test. As a result on that consideration, 18 out of 30 athletes were chosen as the participants. Muscle leg power requires vertical jumps with a jump aid and Harman Formulation. The data were analyzed using T test. The result of analysis showed that: (1) There was a significance effect of the front jump plyometric training on the leg muscle power of the women’s volleyball junior athletes at Yuso Yogyakarta with t count 3.357 > t table 2.306, significance value of 0.010 < 0.05, enhancement percentage of 8.586%. (2) There was a significance effect of side jump plyometric training to the leg muscle power enhancement of the women’s volleyball junior athletes at Yuso Yogyakarta with t count 3.577 > t table 2.306, significance value of 0.007 < 0.05, and enhancement percentage of 3.976%. (3) The front jump plyometric training was more effective to increase leg muscle power with the different percentage of 4.610%.
