Abstract

Speed, Agility and quickness (SAQ) training is an innovative training to develop the whole some efficiency of the athlete for the performance development. SAQ training is intended to increase the ability to exert maximal force during high-speed movements. It manipulates and capitalizes on the stretch-shortening cycle while bridging the gap between traditional resistance training and functional specific movement (Brown & Ferrigno, 2005). Objective: The aim of this study was to analysis the effect of Speed, Agility, and Quickness (SAQ) Training program on Stride Length among Boys Sprinters. Methods: Twenty Boys sprinters studying in Kalaburagi district were selected randomly as subjects. Their age ranged from 16 to 19 years. They were divided into 2 equal groups. Group 1 (Experimental group i.e., G1=10) was subjected to Speed, Agility, and Quickness (SAQ) training for 3 alternate days in a week and group 2 (Control group i.e., G2=10) under gone conventional training for a period of 4 weeks under normal conditions. Data from pretest and post-test was collected in 50 meters run to test the Stride Length. True Experimental Research Design was used. Paired t-test was used to find out the significant difference between pre and post-test. Result: The result showed that there was a significant improvement in Stride Length among Boys Sprinters by undergoing Speed, Agility and Quickness (SAQ) training for 4 weeks. Conclusion: Based on this result, it was concluded that SAQ training can be used to improve Stride Length in Boys Sprinters
