Sažetak
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of proprioceptive training on explosive leg performance. Sixty five physically active men were randomly allocated into experimental (EG ; n = 33) and control group (CG ; n = 32). Jumping performance was assesed at the beggining and at the end of the 10-week training program using three vertical jump tests (countermovement jump (CMJ), one-leg countermovement jump on left (CMJL) and right (CMJR) leg, respectively), and three horizontal jump tests: (standing long-jump (SL), one-leg standing long-jump on left (SLL) and right (SLR) leg, respectively). Experimental group carried out a specifically designed propriceptive training program. Control group was instructed to avoid any strenous physical activity during the experiment. After experiment, EG significantly (P < 0.05) improved all six measures of jumping perfromance. Significant improvement (P < 0.05) in CMJR was also found in CG. At the end of 10wk program, two groups differ significantly (P < 0.05). F-test showed significant difference between groups in only one test CMJ.
