Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to find which resistance training program hip thrust or back squats will enhance the performance that benefits the strength, power and speed in football players.

Detailed Description

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

In previous study there is less literature in determining the comparative effect of hip thrust and back squat resistance training on performance among footballer players. Therefore there is a dire need to explore the effects of these resistance training exercises. This study aims to observe the effect of hip thrust and back squat resistance training on strength, power and speed in footballer players.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Hip thrust

The subjects in Hip thrust group will be instructed to perform low-load gluteus activation exercises, which included single-leg bridges, clamshells and quadruped hip extensions. One set of ten repetitions or steps will perform for each exercise. In this training program three stages which focused on enhancing hypertrophy and strength of the hip extensors in sequence. During the training period, the subjects will be instructed to maintain their usual daily activities and diet. All subjects will complete 18 sessions at a frequency of 3 sessions per week and with at least 48 hours between the sessions. Hip thrust training 3 sets with 10 repetitions in each set and 2 minutes rest between each set.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Hip thrust

Intervention Type OTHER

The subjects in Hip Thrust (HT) group will be instructed to perform low-load gluteus activation exercises, which included single-leg bridges, clamshells and quadruped hip extensions. One set of ten repetitions or steps will perform for each exercise. In this training program three stages which focused on enhancing hypertrophy and strength of the hip extensors in sequence. During the training period, the subjects will be instructed to maintain their usual daily activities and diet. All subjects will complete 18 sessions at a frequency of 3 sessions per week and with at least 48 hours between the sessions. Hip thrust training 3 sets with 10 repetitions in each set and 2 minutes rest between each set.

Back squat

In Back Squat (BS) resistance training the subjects starts with the standing position with the feet flat on the floor, the knees and hips in a neutral, extended anatomical position, and the spine in an upright position with preservation of its natural curves. The squat movement will begin with the descent phase as the hips, knee and ankles flex. A common instruction will be given to the subjectsto descend until the top of the thigh is at least parallel with ground and the hip joint is at least level with or slightly below the knee joint. All subjects will complete 18 sessions at a frequency of 3 sessions per week and with at least 48 hours between sessions. Back squat training 3 sets with 10 repetitions in each set \& 2 minutes rest between each set.
