Pengaruh Metode Circuit Training Terhadap Kelincahan Pemain Bola Basket

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the circuit training method on improving the agility of basketball players. This study employs a quantitative approach with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The participants consisted of all 20 students enrolled in the basketball extracurricular program at SMA NU Kaplongan. Data analysis included the calculating of means, standard deviation, variance, normality test, and hypothesis testing using a paired sample t-test. The results and discussion indicate that circuit training is effective in improving physical agility, yielding an average impovement of 0.72 seconds. This finding addresses the research problem by demonstrating that circuit training involving varied movements and high intensity is more effective in improving agility. The conclusion of this study is that circuit training can significantly improve agility in basketball players.
