NEED OF STUDY

Running Economy is critical and fundamental components of athletic performance in runners. Despite their importance , there is a limited understanding and lack of comprehensive research regarding the effect of explosive training and power training on these critical aspects. Thus, this study focuses to analyse the effect of these training approaches for coaches and athletes , enhancing them to design their training.


AIM OF THE STUDY

  •  To study the effect of Explosive and power training to evaluate running economy in individuals of marathon runner.


OBJECTIVES
  • To study the Combined Effect of Explosive and Power Training on Running Time in runners.
  • To study the Combined Effect of Explosive and Power Training on Endurance in runners.

PROCEDURE
The Subject Will Be Divided Into Two Groups
  • Group A: Explosive and Power Training
  • Group B: Conventional Therapy
Outcome Measure Will Be Recorded At Baseline And After 6 Weeks.
