Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of a plyometric training program on the physical performance of basketball players. 24 male basketball players between the ages of 18-36, who regularly practice basketball, participated in the study voluntarily. Participants were divided into two different groups as the experimental group (n=12, age: 26.50±4.58) and the control group (n=12, age: 22.32±0.90). A plyometric training program was applied to the experimental group 3 days a week for 6 weeks. Both participating groups continued their regular basketball training during the season. In addition to basketball training in the experimental group; Plyometric exercises known as Lateral jump, Box jump, Squat jump, Nordic hamstring curl, Overhead slam, Plyometric push-ups, and Medicine ball bench press were applied. Flexibility, balance, vertical jump, shuttle run test, speed, and T-test were measured before and after the training. SPSS 22.0 package program was used for the statistical analysis of the data. The Shapiro-Wilk test was used for the normality test. Paired Samples T-test was used for comparisons within groups. The significance level was determined as p<0.05. Significance was found in the flexibility, balance, vertical jump, shuttle run, speed, and T-test values of the experimental group (p<0.05). The values of the control group were not significant (p>0.05). As a result, it can be said that the 6-week plyometric training program applied to basketball players has a positive effect on physical performance.
