Abstract
Athletics is one of the most measured sports and is the mother of sports of all other sports.
Athletics is divided into several parts according to its specialization numbers including running, horizontal
vertical jump, and rotational linear throwing. Athletics is predominantly a measurable sport that combines
several physical biomotor components including speed, strength, endurance, explosive power, and
coordination in order to achieve optimal achievement targets. Kediri City itself is a city that is included in
the barometer of athletic development in East Java and even nationally, as evidenced by several
competitions in various age categories (pre-teens, teens, and seniors) which always come out as overall
champions or there is an athletic delegation from Kediri City who participates in the Sea Games, Asian
Games, to the Olympic Games. In a smaller scope of development, in KONI Kediri City there are several
superior sports branches, of which athletics is one of them and is always a gold medal barn in every
implementation of the East Java provincial sports week. Explosive power training development has a
very important role for athletic athletes, this is because almost 80% of athletic competition numbers
require explosive power as a determinant of success in achieving targeted achievements. This
community service was carried out with the aim of seeing the level of explosive power of Kediri City's
athletic athletes by holding explosive power training activities for the lower body extremities (legs).
Description
