Abstract:
The present study was to determine the effect of submaximal and supramaximal training on the performance of sprinters. The subjects were sixty male sprinters of 18 to 25 years of age, from L.N.U.P.E., Gwalior. The subjects were randomly selected and were assigned to two experimental groups i.e. submaximal and maximal groups and control group, with 20 subjects in each group. The training was given for a period of 12 weeks. The two experimental groups were trained upto six days in a week, while the control group continued with their daily routine work. The selected variables were the performance of subjects in long jump and triple jump. The pre- and post-test were conducted. After the collection of data, analysis of covariance was used to identify significant difference between the groups. The LSD post hoc test was used to identify significant differences between the training programmes. The level of significance was set at 0.05.
