Abstract

This study aims to find out how much influence weight training with pyramid system against leg and back muscle strength, grip strength, pull and push strength. This research uses experimental method with design of the one group pretest-posttest design. The population of this research is the Sports Science (IKOR) student class of 2013. The sample in this research involves all students of IKOR FIK UNY concentration of fitness as many as 11 people. The instrument used is back/ leg dynamometer, hand grip dynamometer, pull and push dynamometer. The data analysis technique uses the normality test to find out whether the data has normal distributed distribution. Test homogeneity variant to test the similarity of experimental group data variance. Test t to find out whether there are differences of variables between pretest and posttest in the experimental group. Based on the result of t test analysis, it can be concluded that there is significance difference of less than 0.05 (p <0.05), it can be concluded that there are significant differences in the four variables during pre test and post test. The increase can be seen on percentage increase of leg muscle strength increased 7,43%, back muscle strength equal to 22,15%, right grip strength 41,42%, left grip strength 10,67%, pull equal to 8,15% and Push strength of 11.14%. © Serials Publications.
