Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

High-intensity interval training has been beneficial in many sports and significantly enhanced the results of physical training. Consequently, it has progressively been implemented among the football players. A Cluster Set (CS) is a set that has been broken up into smaller blocks of repeats with the inclusion of brief intra-set breaks or a reorganization of the breaks between repetitions. The initial assumption is that this design would offer a superior rise in exercise quality with the potential to maintain or enhance performance and enable larger loads, leading to stronger performance adaptations. The objective of the study is to compare the effects of high intensity interval training and cluster training on speed, explosive strength and functional performance in football players.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The objective of the study is to determine the effects of high intensity interval training and cluster training on speed, explosive strength and functional performance in football players.This is randomized clinical trial that will be conducted at football club, Pakistan sport club Lahore. Non-Probability convenient sampling technique will be used to collect data. The study will be completed in 6 months after the approval of ethical committee of RCRS \& Allied Health Sciences. Total number of participants will be 54, in group A participants will be 27, in group B participants will be 27. Performance, speed and strength will be measured by using FMS, 30-meter speed test and vertical jump test respectively. The participants will be divided into two groups. Group A will receive high intensity interval training (HIIT) and group B will receive cluster training. The training program will be conducted for 6 weeks and data will be collected pre and post training session. The data will be entered and analyzed using SPSS version 25 and Shapiro wilk test will be applied to determine the normality of the data. If data will be normally distributed then parametric type of statistical test will be applied while if the data will not normally distribute then non parametric type of test will be applied.

Tabata Training

HIIT training programs follow Tabata protocol. This protocol was created with the aim of improving the aerobic and anaerobic characteristics beyond the threshold (anaerobic). It consists of performing seven or eight repetitions at maximum intensity, alternating with ten seconds of passive recovery. The series lasts approximately four minutes (240 sec). Given the intensity of the Tabata protocol, it is necessary to finish the workout with a cool down of at least 10-15 minutes. It includes exercises like push-ups, split squats, box jumps, burpees, jumping rope, jumping jacks and more. This training program, lasting about 20 minutes, was repeated three times a week for a total of 6 weeks. The duration of this type of work is not accidental. In fact, it has been scientifically established that only after this period it is possible to find significant improvements in speed, strength and functional activity

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Tabata Training

Intervention Type OTHER

This training program, lasting about 20 minutes, was repeated three times a week for a total of 6 weeks.

Cluster Traning

The cluster training consist squat, leg extension, leg curl, heel raise, French curl, barbell curl, Bench press, Incline bench press, behind the neck press with barbell, Overhead press with barbell. The movements were performed in 3 sets, each set containing 9 repetitions with 60-90 seconds of rest between each two sets. Each training session consisted of three steps: Warm up Basic training and Cool-down. Both groups performed the first and the third stage in 10 minutes
