Abstract

Background Declining physical activity and increasing mental health problems among university students have become major public health concerns. Although outdoor recreation has been associated with physical and psychological benefits, evidence regarding the effectiveness of structured outbound recreation in improving both physical fitness and mental health among university students remains limited. Objectives This study aimed to examine the effect of outbound recreation on the physical fitness and mental health of fifth-semester students enrolled in the Physical Education. Methods This study employed an experimental method using a one-group pretest–posttest design involving all research participants. This study was conducted in the Physical Education, Health, and Recreation Program, Faculty of Teacher Education and Educational Sciences, Nusa Cendana University, with 38 students. Physical fitness was assessed using an appropriate standardized physical fitness test, while mental health was measured using a standardized questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics through a paired-samples t-test at a significance level of 0.05. Results The findings revealed that the outbound recreation program significantly improved the students' physical fitness and mental health (p = 0.000). Improvements in mental health were observed across several dimensions, including emotional well-being (75%), psychological well-being (73%), self-control (76%), and life satisfaction and happiness (77%), all of which were classified as being in the strong category. Meanwhile, the dimensions of social well-being as well as adaptation and resilience demonstrated improvements within the moderate category. These findings indicate that outbound recreation is an effective approach for enhancing both the physical fitness and mental health of university students. Conclusion Structured outbound recreation is an effective recreation-based learning strategy for enhancing university students' physical fitness and mental health. These findings provide empirical evidence supporting the integration of outdoor recreation into higher education programs to promote student well-being through experiential learning and physical activity.

Abstract

Background Sepak takraw performance depends on technical skill and physical fitness. However, the use of analytics technology to support training management in community-based sepak takraw programs remains limited. Therefore, this study examined changes in athletes' technical and physical performance following the integration of analytics technology into training management. Objectives This study examined changes in the technical and physical performance of community-based sepak takraw athletes after analytics technology was incorporated into training management. Methods A one-group pretest-posttest study involved 24 active athletes from Puse Village, Tolitoli Regency, Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, recruited through total sampling. Over 12 weeks, four weekly training sessions integrated wearable monitoring, video-based technical analysis, and a digital performance database. Outcomes were service accuracy, smash effectiveness, Illinois Agility Test time, computerized reaction time, and athletes' perceptions of the system. Pre-post outcomes were evaluated with paired-samples tests at p < .05, while perception scores were summarized descriptively. Results Service accuracy increased from 68.42% to 82.17% (+20.10%, p < .001), and smash effectiveness increased from 71.36% to 84.91% (+18.98%, p < .001). Agility time decreased from 17.83 to 16.08 s (-9.80%, p = .002), and reaction time decreased from 342.16 to 303.15 ms (-11.40%, p = .001). Perception ratings were favorable, with the highest mean for training effectiveness (4.63) and an overall satisfaction mean of 4.48. Conclusion Technical and physical performance improved during the technology-supported program, and athletes evaluated the system positively. Analytics technology appears feasible for community-based sepak takraw training, but controlled studies with complete inferential statistics are needed before improvements can be attributed exclusively to the intervention.

Abstract

Background Forearm passing is a fundamental volleyball skill that supports serve reception, defensive organization, and attack construction. Its successful execution requires a stable forearm platform, coordinated body positioning, and sufficient upper-body control. Although reverse push-up exercises are practical for developing upper-body strength and stability in school settings, evidence regarding their integration with passing practice among adolescent volleyball players remains limited Objectives This study examined changes in forearm passing accuracy after a six-week reverse push-up–supported training program among adolescent extracurricular volleyball players. Methods A one-group pretest–posttest study involved 31 students (19 boys and 12 girls) participating in a junior-high-school volleyball extracurricular program in Jakarta, Indonesia. Participants completed 16 supervised sessions across six weeks (approximately three sessions per week). Training combined progressive reverse push-up variations with forearm-passing practice. Passing performance was assessed before and after the program using a one-minute AAHPERD wall-volley target test. Paired changes were evaluated with a paired-samples t test, a 95% confidence interval (CI), standardized paired effect size (dz), and a Wilcoxon signed-rank sensitivity analysis. Results Mean scores increased from 18.87 ± 3.28 at pretest to 32.55 ± 4.65 at posttest. The mean improvement was 13.68 points (95% CI 12.44–14.91), equivalent to 72.48% of the baseline mean, t(30) = 22.59, p < .001, dz = 4.06. All 31 participants improved, with individual gains ranging from 6 to 18 points. The Wilcoxon analysis supported the direction of the primary result (V = 496, p < .001). Conclusion Forearm passing scores improved substantially during the six-week program. Reverse push-ups may be a practical conditioning component when integrated with task-specific passing drills in school volleyball. However, because this study lacked a control group and combined physical and technical training, these improvements cannot be attributed solely to reverse push-ups.

Abstract

Background Physical and psychological readiness are interrelated components of athletic preparation, particularly in martial arts, where athletes must combine high levels of strength, endurance, speed, flexibility, technical execution, concentration, emotional control, and self-confidence during competition. As Aceh prepares to train martial arts athletes for the 2028 Indonesia's National Sports Week (INSW), monitoring their multidimensional readiness is necessary to identify strengths, detect areas requiring support, and guide evidence-based training programs. Objectives The purpose of this study is to describe the physical and psychological readiness of martial arts athletes participating in the Aceh Provincial Sports Committee’s development program for the 2028 INSW. Methods A cross-sectional survey was completed by 213 athletes from pencak silat, taekwondo, fencing, karate, kempo, tarung derajat, kickboxing, hapkido, wushu, and muaythai. The questionnaire assessed perceived physical readiness (strength, endurance, speed, flexibility, and injury/recovery status) and psychological readiness (motivation, self-confidence, emotional control, concentration, and management of competitive anxiety). Scores were summarized on a 0–100 scale. Descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation were calculated at α = .05. Results Mean perceived physical readiness was 82.64 ± 8.91 and mean psychological readiness was 78.27 ± 9.35; overall readiness was 80.46 ± 8.23. The highest descriptive scores were observed in pencak silat (physical: 86.3; psychological: 82.4), whereas fencing had the lowest scores (78.9 and 75.3, respectively). Physical and psychological readiness were positively correlated (r = .68, p < .001). Because individual-level test statistics were unavailable for the sport and sex comparisons, between-group differences were interpreted descriptively. Conclusion The athletes reported generally high readiness, but psychological readiness lagged behind physical readiness. Indonesian National Sports Committee (INSC) Aceh should complement conditioning and technical preparation with systematic mental-skills support, recovery and injury surveillance, and repeated multidimensional monitoring. Objective fitness tests and prospective performance outcomes are required before these self-reported scores can be used to predict INSW performance.
