Abstract:

The purpose of the study was to find out the effects of resistance training and plyometric training in series on strength endurance. To achieve this purpose of the study, thirty men students studying Bachelors of Physical Education at Department of Physical Education, Annamalai University, India were randomly selected as subjects during the year2018-19. They were divided into two equal groups of fifteen subjects each. Group I underwent resistance training parallel with plyometric training for three sessions per week for twelve weeks. And group II acted as control group who did not participate in any of the special training programme. Strength endurance was only selected as dependent variable. Resistance trainingand plyometric training in series was selected as independent variable. Strength endurance was measured by using bend knee sit ups. The data were collected at prior and immediately after the training programme on strength endurance. The collected data were analysed statistically by using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The .05 level of confidence was fixed to test the level of significance. The results of the study revealed that resistance training and plyometric training in series group significantly improved strength endurancewhen compared with control group.
