Abstract :
The purpose of the study was to find out the influence of weight training parallel with plyometric and cross
training on speed endurance. To achieve this purpose of the study, forty-five men students studying CSSR & SRRM Degree College, Kamalapuram, YSR (D), Andhra Pradesh, India were randomly selected as subjects during the year 2015-2016. They were divided into three equal groups of fifteen subjects each. Group I underwent weight training parallel with plyometric training for three sessions per week for twelve weeks. Group II underwent weight training parallel with cross training for three sessions per week for twelve weeks. And group III acted as control group who did not participated in any of the special training programme. Speed endurance was only selected as dependent variable. Weight training parallel with plyometric training and weight training parallel with cross training were selected as independent variables. Speed endurance was measured by using 150 mts run. The data were collected at prior and immediately after the training programme on elastic power. The collected data were analysed statistically by using analysis of covariance. The scheffe’s post hoc test was used to find out paired mean differences, if any. The results of the study revealed that weight training with plyometric training and weight training with cross training groups significantly improved speed endurance when compared with control group. Among the training weight parallel with plyometric training is better to develop speed endurance than weight parallel with cross training.
