ADOPTION OF THE TRAINING LOAD OF ASCENDING PYRAMID SYSTEM: EFFECT OF LADDER-DRILL TRAINING ON STUDENTS’ AGILITY
Journal Title: Educational Research International - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
Physical Education (PE) is one subject in schools that focuses on meeting the adequacy of students' physical activities to achieve optimal physical fitness. However, the PE program has still not been found to have a significant direct impact on physical fitness and aspects of it. For this reason, such as Sallis et al, it was successful in proving that PE programs added with physical activity outside learning succeeded in having a significant impact on some aspects of physical fitness. (Sallis et al., 1997). Likewise with this article, will explain the results of the study in the form of giving a program outside of PE learning in the form of ladder-drill training for six weeks using the loading of an ascending pyramid system to increase the students' agility. The study was included in a quasi-experimental type using the matching-only pretest-posttest control group design. Random sampling mechanism is done to select 30 students as subjects, then ordinal pairing is used to determine treatment and control groups. Agility is measured using Agility T-Test. The results showed that giving additional programs in the form of ladder-drill using an ascending pyramid loading system for 6 weeks succeeded in significantly increasing student agility. Agility improvement of students from pretest to posttest was 8.0%. In addition, a significant difference in the results of the treatment and control group exercise (d = 1,528) proves that this program should be a mainstay program for schools and other PE teachers to improve the agility of their students.
