<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the effect of self-talk training on improving the self-confidence of Pencak Silat athletes. Self-confidence is an essential psychological factor influencing athletic performance, while self-talk is a mental training technique that helps regulate thoughts and emotions through positive internal dialogue. This study employed a one-group pretest-posttest experimental design involving 21 Pencak Silat athletes from Junior high school 46 Jakarta. The intervention consisted of eight self-talk sessions over four weeks focusing on education, practice, and reflection. Data were analyzed using SPSS 26. The average self-confidence score at the pretest was 33.52 with a standard deviation of 3.842, while at the posttest it increased to 38.57 with a standard deviation of 3.501. The Shapiro-Wilk normality test showed that both pretest and posttest data were normally distributed (p > 0.05), and the Levene’s Test indicated homogeneous variance (p = 0.567). The paired sample t-test produced a significance value of p = 0.000, indicating a significant difference between pretest and posttest results. These findings demonstrate that self-talk training effectively increases athletes’ self-confidence, emotional control, and focus, making it a practical psychological strategy to improve mental readiness and performance in Pencak Silat athletes.]]>

<![CDATA[The purpose of this study was to develop an efficient training model to improve kicking power in pencak silat athletes. The study implemented the TCSSM method to enhance lower-limb muscle strength over 16 training sessions. This method involved strength training with time-controlled sets, using 60%–80% of 1RM, 4–5 sets with repetitions based on maximum capacity calculations, and 45–60 seconds of rest between sets. Prior to the training program, a 1RM Leg Press test was conducted to assess the athletes’ physical readiness and performance capacity. The results showed an increase in the average lower-limb muscle strength measured through the 1RM leg-press test, from a pre-test mean of 56.44 kg to a post-test mean of 81.72 kg, with an improvement of +25 kg or 44%. These findings indicate that the training intervention was effective in increasing maximal lower-limb muscle strength, with a significant upward trend observed throughout the study. The study further demonstrated that the combination of TRX training and the TCSSM method significantly improved the lower-limb muscle strength of pencak silat athletes by 44%. Post-training results suggest neuromuscular adaptation and muscle hypertrophy that positively contributed to the athletes’ explosive power performance. Keywords: Lower-Limb Muscle Strength, TCSSM, TRX]]>

<![CDATA[Speed is a crucial physical component in pencak silat, particularly in executing the sickle kick technique, which plays an important role in scoring effectiveness during matches. However, school-age pencak silat athletes often demonstrate limited kick speed due to insufficient specific strength and neuromuscular development. Therefore, training methods that integrate strength development with technical movement specificity are needed to optimize performance. This study aims to analyze the effect of resistance training integrated with the sickle kick technique on increasing the speed of the sickle kick of school-age pencak silat athletes. The study used a quantitative approach with an experimental method through a one-group pretest–posttest design. The subjects consisted of 10 school-age pencak silat athletes who participated in extracurricular pencak silat activities at Muhammadiyah 6 Junior High School Bandung, with a total sampling technique. The treatment was resistance training using a resistance band which was carried out for 14 meetings with a frequency of three times per week. Measurement of the sickle kick speed was carried out by counting the number of kicks executed correctly within 10 seconds towards paching during the pretest and posttest. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality tests, and paired samples t-tests at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed an increase in the average value of the sickle kick speed from 15.60 in the pretest to 18.80 in the posttest. The paired samples t-test showed a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating that resistance training significantly increased the speed of the sickle kick in school-age pencak silat athletes. This finding confirms that resistance training based on specific movement techniques is effective in developing the performance of school-age pencak silat athletes.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the relationship between wrist flexibility and arm muscle strength with smash accuracy and speed in badminton athletes of Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI). In this study using descriptive methods with correlational techniques and the sample in this study amounted to 12 UPI Badminton UKM athletes.. Descriptive statistics show the average wrist flexibility of 99.16, arm muscle strength of 5.01, smash accuracy of 4.25, and smash speed of 103.83. The normality test results showed that the data were normally distributed (p> 0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed a significant positive relationship between wrist flexibility and smash accuracy (r = 0.640, p = 0.025) and smash speed (r = 0.662, p = 0.019). Similarly, arm muscle strength was significantly associated with accuracy (r = 0.587, p = 0.045) and smash speed (r = 0.720, p = 0.008). However, the regression analysis results showed that these two variables together did not have a significant effect on smash accuracy (p = 0.081) but were significant on smash speed (p = 0.030). The results of this study underscore the importance of wrist flexibility and arm muscle strength in supporting smash performance, both in terms of accuracy and speed. Training that focuses on improving flexibility and arm muscle strength is recommended to help athletes improve the quality of their smashes, while still considering aspects of technique and coordination.]]>
