Abstract

Gross motor development is very important for children. The development of children's gross motor skills requires assistance from educators in educational institutions. The ability to carry out movements and physical actions for a child is related to self-confidence and forming a self-concept. One way to maintain body fitness is through rhythmic exercise. Rhythmic gymnastics are gymnastic movements or free movements accompanied by music that matches the rhythm that follows the movements. Rhythmic gymnastics aims to develop movement abilities, such as developing muscle endurance, strength, flexibility, agility and balance through physical activities, namely playing and exercising which are carried out systematically, directed and planned. Children who are directly involved in rhythmic gymnastics activities will develop flexibility and coordination. To improve a child's gross motor skills, training is needed that is appropriate to the child's characteristics. Gross motor development will be optimal if physical activities are carried out to stimulate it. First, perform coordinated body movements to train flexibility, balance and agility. Second, coordinate the movements of the legs, hands and head in imitating dance or gymnastics. Third, play a physical game with rules. Fourth, be skilled in using your right and left hands. Fifth, carry out personal hygiene activities.

Abstract

Increasing jumping ability is one of the key factors in achieving achievements in volleyball. Plyometric training, known to be effective in improving jumping ability and muscle strength, has been the focus of this study to evaluate its effects on volleyball athletes. Through comprehensive literature analysis, this research aims to collect and synthesize data from various existing studies regarding the application of plyometric training in volleyball training, to understand the concrete benefits of this training method on improving athletes' jumping abilities. A literature search was carried out on various databases and scientific journals that publish research related to sport, fitness and exercise physiology, with certain inclusion criteria to ensure the relevance and quality of the data. The results of the analysis show that plyometric training significantly contributes to improving the jumping performance of volleyball athletes. This is reflected in increased vertical jump performance, reaction time, and muscle contraction speed which are vital in volleyball games. The implementation of plyometric training that is structured and adaptive to the needs of individual athletes shows more optimal results, indicating that personalization of training plays an important role. Additionally, the integration of plyometric exercises with the overall training program, including aspects of strength, speed, and endurance, was identified as an effective strategy for achieving maximum results. Based on these findings, it is concluded that plyometric training is an important component in volleyball training to improve athletes' jumping ability. This research recommends the use of plyometric training as part of a volleyball athlete's preparation, while paying attention to individual needs and preventing the risk of injury to maximize the benefits of training.
