RESEARCH ON CORE STRENGTH TRAINING FOR VOLLEYBALL PLAYERS

ABSTRACT Introduction: Modern exercise physiology theory states that abdominal core muscle strength plays a very important role in the completion of athletes’ motor skills; the specific performance is to stabilize the athlete’s center of gravity, the source of explosion and power transmission beyond his center of control. Objective: Verify the effect of an experimental training methods on the muscular strength of the abdominal core in volleyball athletes. Methods: 24 athletes were divided into an experimental group and a control group, in order to ensure that the baseline indicators of the two groups before the experiment did not show significant comparison, using independent sample t-test and paired sample t-test. Results: The average number of sit-ups of the two groups of students was 58.15 and 70.52n, respectively, the five baseline indicators of stability of the two groups were all significant, and the strength training methods in the experimental group were better than those in the control group. Conclusion: The presented experimental method helps to improve the success rate in athlete’s jump. The core strength training methods used in the experimental group in jumping were superior to the traditional training methods used in the control group.
