Abstract :

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the Effect of specific training on speed, explosive power and muscular strength parameters among school men handball players. To achieve the purpose of the study thirty men players were selected from Schaffter Hr.Sec.School, during the year 2016–17. The subjects’ age ranges from 14 to 18 years. The selected players were divided into two equal groups consists of 15 men players each namely experimental group and control group. The experimental group underwent specific training programmed for six weeks. The control group was not take part in any training during the course of the study. Speed, explosive power and muscular strength were taken as criterion variables in this study. Pre–test was taken before the training period and post– test was measured immediately after the six week training period. Statistical technique‘t’ ratio was used to analyze the means of the pre–test and post test data of experimental group and control group. The results revealed that there was a significant difference found on the criterion variables. The significant difference was found due to specific training given to the experimental group on speed, explosive power and muscular strength when compared to control group.
