Abstract

Introduction: 
In track and field events, the force generated by running, jumping, and throwing starts from the lower limbs and is transmitted from bottom to top, forming a complete dynamic chain.

Objective: 
Study the effect of different combined strength training methods on the explosive strength of the lower limbs of track and field athletes.

Methods: 
Twenty members of the track and field team were selected as research subjects and divided into two groups, A and B. Group A performed the maximum resistance training method, and group B performed the submaximal resistance training method and underwent 12 weeks of different combined strength training.

Results: 
After 12 weeks of training, there was a significant difference in the results of the two groups of students in the approach run (male P=0.034, female P=0.021), and the results of experimental group B improved significantly.

Conclusion: 
The maximum resistance training method can most effectively improve the explosive performance of the lower limbs of track and field practitioners. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
