The effect of the transformational training method in developing the muscular strength of the working muscles and some defensive skills in handball for advanced players

Abstract

The research aims to identify the differences between the pre-test and post-test of the control and experimental groups in the muscular strength of the working muscles and some defensive skills in handball for advanced players. The researcher used the experimental method in the style of two equal groups to suit the nature of the research. The researcher identified the research community at the Handball Teachers Club within the Iraqi Premier League in the capital, Baghdad, consisting of (20) players who were divided into two equal groups, control and experimental. After conducting the pre-tests of muscular strength and skill in handball, the transformational training was applied to the experimental research group. After that, the experimental test was conducted to determine the effect of these exercises. It was concluded that transformational training has an important and major role in developing the muscular strength and skill of advanced handball players.
