Abstract:
This study aims to prove the effect of traditional strength training with low row kinesis exercise on increasing muscle strength and arm power in male students. This study uses a pre-experimental method with one group pretest posttest design. A total of 10 adolescent males, aged 20-21 years, and without a history of heart disease were involved in the study and given a traditional strength training intervention with kinesis low row for 6 weeks then muscle strength and power arm measurements were carried out between before and after the intervention. Statistical analysis uses paired sample t-test with a significant level of 5%. The results showed a significant increase in muscle strength between before and after the intervention (21.30±5.91 to 32.65±9.38 kg, p=0.005) and has a large effect size with a Cohen's d value of 1.449. We also observed an increase in power arm between before and after the intervention (178.46±31.84 to 236.96±49.65 kg, p=0.019) and has a large effect size with a Cohen's d value of 1.403. These findings prove that the traditional strength training with low row kinesis exercise intervention for 6 weeks is effective in increasing muscle strength and arm power in male students.
