Brief Summary

Sprints can be a really effective way to improve participants cardiovascular fitness, strength and power, and running economy. Participants can gain bigger improvements and in less time with sprinting than with continuous easy running. Power training typically involves exercises which apply the maximum amount of force as fast as possible. Both these trainings are vital to increase the speed and repeated sprint ability in cricket fast bowlers.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Speed

  speed is assessed by 10-m sprint test. participants will run for 10 meters on the sound of GO. the time taken for the completion of 10 meter track will be recorded by a handled stopwatch. Measurements will be taken before and after 10-m sprint test.

  10 months

• Repeated Sprint Ability

  Repeated-sprint ability (RSA) is now well accepted as an important fitness component in team-sport performance. It is broadly described as the ability to perform repeated short (\~3-4 s, 20-30 m) sprints with only brief (\~10-30 s) recovery between bouts. measurements will be taken before and after the repeated sprint ability test.

Study Arms (2)

sprint training

EXPERIMENTAL

group 1 will perform sprint training for 4 weeks, 3 sessions per week Participants will perform 6 maximal 25-m sprint with recovery period of 25 seconds after each sprint for four weeks and three sessions per week. Participants will perform 10 m sprint 2 trials with 2 minutes recovery period between each trial for four weeks and three sessions per week. Participants will perform Vertical jump, 2 trials with 1-minute recovery period between each trial for four weeks, three sessions per week.

Other: sprint training

power training

EXPERIMENTAL

GROUP 2 will perform POWER TRAINING for 4 weeks, 3 sessions per week Participants will perform Countermovement jump 2 trials, with 1-minute recovery between each trial for four weeks, three times per week. Participants will perform squat jump 2 trials with 1-minute recovery between each trial for four weeks, three times per week. Participants will perform broad jump 2 trials with 1-minute recovery between each trial for four weeks, three times per week.

Other: Power Training
