The effect of special Exercises on developing explosive strength and long-distance shooting among youth basketball players (3x3)

Abstract

This research aimed to identify the effect of speed-strength arm exercises on the long-range shooting skills of young 3x3 basketball players. A training program was designed using assistive devices to develop speed-strength arm muscles. The researcher employed an experimental approach, deemed suitable for the research problem, which involved a population exhibiting low long-range shooting abilities. The study also aimed to identify differences in pre- and post-test scores between the two experimental groups regarding the development of speed-strength arm muscles and their impact on long-range shooting in 3x3 basketball. Furthermore, the researcher examined the differences in post-test scores between the two experimental groups in the development of speed-strength arm muscles and their impact on long-range shooting in 3x3 basketball. Through discussion of the results, the researcher concluded that the assistive devices used improved speed-strength arm muscles, which in turn influenced shooting performance in 3x3 basketball among the young players. The researcher also concluded that high-intensity interval training using the assistive devices is compatible and has a direct relationship with achieving the desired development in both speed-strength arm muscles and long-range shooting skills.

The researcher recommended that coaches allocate specific time during training sessions for using weights, medicine balls, and resistance bands during exercises, as these contribute effectively to developing speed-strength in the arms and long-range shooting skills in 3x3 basketball players. He also emphasized the importance of using high-intensity interval training with assistive equipment, as it is suitable for achieving and developing these skills (speed-strength in the arms and long-range shooting in 3x3 basketball).
