Abstract

This research was conducted to examine the association between arm muscle strength and waist flexibility with shooting performance in the women’s indoor hockey team of Bandar Lampung City. A descriptive correlational design was employed in this study. The sample consisted of 30 participants. Data collection instruments included a push and pull dynamometer, standing stroke test, and indoor hockey shooting test. The research hypotheses were: (1) there is a relationship between arm muscle strength and shooting performance, (2) there is a relationship between waist flexibility and shooting performance, and (3) arm muscle strength and waist flexibility jointly relate to shooting outcomes. The findings revealed that: (1) arm muscle strength had a significant correlation with shooting performance (r = 0.486 > r table = 0.374), (2) waist flexibility was also significantly correlated with shooting performance (r = 0.410 > r table = 0.374), and (3) simultaneously, arm muscle strength and waist flexibility showed a significant combined relationship with shooting performance (r = 0.538 > r table = 0.374), contributing 29.01%.
