ABSTRACT
Introduction
Athletics has high requirements for resistance and strength. Therefore, more and more researchers are focusing on improving these athletes’ endurance and muscular strength, prioritizing their sports performance.
Objective
Explore methods of adding resistance to conventional training to increase performance and muscle strength in track and field.
Methods
Volunteers in the experiment and control groups were randomly assigned. Both groups received 10 weeks of physical training. The experimental group used a 10-meter lap run on the track, with squats, left and right-side squat jumps, fast bow squats, fast squats, fast trot runs, and lower limb lifting activities. The control group used only running in their conventional training.
Results
Significant differences were found in the blood lactate test rates of the experimental groups. The maximum heart rate and heart rate at 3 minutes after the end of the test decreased, the recovery rate increased, the number of continuous squats and average squats in one minute increased significantly, the 8RM squat, 1RM squat, vertical jump. Long jump had very significant differences, including the vertical stiffness in the drop jump.
Conclusion
The endurance and muscle strength of track and field athletes had positive impacts through the experimental training presented. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
