Resistance Training Using TRX Bands And Its Effect On Some Biomechanical Variables And The Accuracy Of The Offensive Blocking Skill Of Youth Volleyball Players

Abstract

Research Abstract: Blocking is a fundamental skill in volleyball, comparable to the effectiveness of the spike, which has offensive advantages at the net. Furthermore, it has a psychological impact on the attacker, as the attacker's awareness of opposing players restricts their freedom to act decisively when serving. The ball is moved to the appropriate location and distracts him. The importance of this research lies in subjecting the sample to resistance training using TRX bands to verify their suitability and ability to enhance the skills of young players, thus benefiting them and strengthening national teams. The national research problem arose from the researchers' observations of some teams' training sessions. They noted that some coaches' failure to utilize such modern and advanced training methods could negatively impact biomechanical variables, as well as the adjustment of approach steps and proper utilization. The distance between the net and the player is crucial for achieving optimal skill performance. Therefore, the researchers decided to study this problem by developing resistance exercises using TRX bands, which could develop the strength needed by the player to achieve the correct movement path for performing the blocking skill. The offensive, but the research objectives are to prepare resistance exercises using TRX bands for some biomechanical variables and the accuracy of the offensive blocking skill, and to identify the effect of resistance exercises using TRX bands on some biomechanical variables between the pre-test and post-test. To determine the effect of resistance training using TRX bands on the accuracy of the offensive blocking skill between the pre-test and post-test, the researchers used an experimental method with a single group pre-test and post-test. The research population consisted of volleyball players from the specialized center. The study involved (16) players aged 16-18 years, from whom (8) players were selected to represent the research sample. These 8 players were chosen purposively and represent (50%) of the population. The most important conclusion is that resistance training using TRX bands had a significant impact on developing biomechanical variables among the players. The research sample is based on the fact that these exercises work to develop the ability.
