Abstract

Strength is very important for achieving optimal performance in sports, serving to develop other biomotor components. A lack of maximum strength will have an impact on the decline of biomotor components and increase the risk. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there was an effect of the combination of hypertrophy-neural training and neural training methods on the increase in maximum leg muscle strength in Muay Thai athletes. This study employed an experimental method with a quantitative approach, using a two-group pre-test post-test design. It involved 30 Muay Thai athletes at Ares Fighting Camp, and the sample selection used total sampling. The treatment consisted of 18 sessions at the beginning and end of the sample period, with a Leg Dynamometer test administered to determine the components of leg muscle strength in the sample. After the data was obtained, the Mann-Whitney hypothesis test yielded a statistical Sig value (2-tailed) of 0.360, which was greater than the probability value of 0.05. Therefore, it can be concluded that there was no difference in the effect of the combination of neural hypertrophy training and neural training methods on increasing the maximum leg muscle strength of Muay Thai athletes. It is recommended that coaches and athletes increase maximum leg muscle strength using the neural hypertrophy combination training method because it targets the desired physiological adaptation by combining two training phases: the hypertrophy phase to increase muscle volume/strength and the neural phase to increase nerve activation efficiency and compact the body so that strength can be increased while adding muscle volume.

Abstract

Physical literacy is a holistic ability that encompasses physical, cognitive, and affective dimensions, playing an important role in encouraging lifelong participation in physical activities. This study aims to analyze changes in the physical literacy of elementary school students in Gunungpati District, Semarang City, over a period of two academic years. The research design used was a pure longitudinal study involving public elementary school students (n = 99) who were selected purposively. Physical literacy was measured using a combination of objective tests (TIAMSA, PACER, 30-second sit-ups) for the physical dimension and perception questionnaires for the cognitive and affective dimensions. The analysis was conducted using a paired sample t-test for inter-year comparisons and a Linear Mixed Model (LMM) to control for individual and school variations. The results showed a significant increase in total physical literacy scores (Mean Difference = p < 0.05), with the most consistent upward trend in the physical dimension (p < 0.01), while the cognitive and affective dimensions showed fluctuations and were not always significant (p > 0.05). LMM analysis confirmed the effect of time on physical literacy, but there was a lack of parallel development across dimensions. In conclusion, students' physical literacy improved, especially in physical abilities, while non-physical dimensions required special attention. This study is novel because it combines objective and subjective assessments in a longitudinal design in Indonesia and provides important empirical insights for holistic physical education policy.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of music-based warm-up modifications on students' active participation in Physical Education learning at Public Senior High School 16 Bandung. Music-based warm-up was chosen because music has been proven to improve mood, foster enthusiasm, and reduce student boredom. The background of the study stems from the problem of low student participation in Physical Education learning due to monotonous and less varied teaching methods. This study used an experimental method with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The research sample was 204 grade XII students selected using a simple random sampling technique. The research instrument was a student active participation questionnaire compiled based on Keith Davis's theory, supplemented by observation and documentation sheets. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test through SPSS 16.0 for Windows. The results showed a significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores, where the majority of students experienced an increase in active participation after being given music-based warm-up treatment. These findings indicate that music-based warm-up can create a pleasant learning atmosphere, meet students' psychological needs, and increase their intrinsic motivation. Thus, this innovative learning strategy can be an effective alternative to improve the quality of PE learning in secondary schools and encourage more optimal student involvement.

Abstract

Rowing athlete performance is greatly influenced by aerobic capacity, explosive strength, and precise technical coordination. One strategy widely used to support performance improvement is altitude training, namely training in hypoxic conditions through the Live High-Train Low (LHTL), Live High-Train High (LHTH), and Intermittent Hypoxic Training (IHT) methods. Hypoxic exposure is believed to stimulate an increase in erythropoietin (EPO), which in turn increases hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Hct), and total hemoglobin mass (Hbmass), thereby optimizing the body's oxygen transport capacity. This study aims to systematically examine the effect of altitude training on blood components and the performance of elite rowing athletes. The study was conducted using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach based on the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Data sources were obtained through the Publish or Perish tool with a publication year range of 2015–2025, and inclusion criteria focused on Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) studies examining the effects of altitude training on elite rowing athletes. The results of the analysis showed that the LHTL method with a duration of 3–4 weeks and hypoxic exposure of ≥12 hours per day provided a significant increase in Hb, Hct, Hbmass, as well as aerobic capacity such as VO₂max and peak power output. However, there are variations in individual responses between "responders" and "non-responders," as well as differences in study design that cause the results to be inconsistent. Factors such as training intensity, initial fitness status, and nutritional support also influence the effectiveness of the intervention. Therefore, it can be concluded that altitude training has the potential to be an effective strategy to improve the performance of rowing athletes through hematological and physiological adaptations, with LHTL as the most promising method. This research is expected to provide theoretical contributions to the development of sports coaching science as well as practical recommendations for coaches and federations in developing evidence-based training programs.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of motivational self-talk on the anxiety level of short-distance and middle-distance runners. Anxiety, as experienced by the players, particularly before competitions, can have a negative influence on their performance. Motivational self-talk is a psychological intervention technique used to enhance concentration, build self-confidence, and reduce competitive anxiety. The design of the study utilized in this case was a one-group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental study. The sample consisted of 29 athletes from Sekolah Atletik Pajajaran Bandung, who were short-distance and middle-distance runners. Anxiety was quantified using the Sport Anxiety Scale-2 (SAS-2). Treatment was a motivational self-talk training package that was presented in 12 sessions and included the skills of countering, reframing, and affirming. Paired sample t-test of the data showed that motivational self-talk reduced the anxiety level of short-distance (p < 0.05) and middle-distance runners (p < 0.05). The results of the independent sample t-test showed no significant difference between the two groups (p > 0.05), which meant that motivational self-talk affected both of them equally. The study concludes that motivational self-talk reduces anxiety in short- and middle-distance runners and is recommended to be included in general athlete training programs.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between Physical Literacy (PL) and mental well-being among university students, with physical activity functioning as a mediating variable through the Embodied Cognition framework. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 195 active students from the Faculty of Sports and Health Education at Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia, Bandung. Data were collected using the Student Physical Literacy Questionnaire, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF), and the Student Well-being Scale. Mediation analysis was performed using PROCESS Macro for SPSS version 4.2, Model 4. Results revealed that PL significantly predicts physical activity (β = 0.27, p < 0.005), and both PL and physical activity significantly influence mental well-being (β = 0.21 and β = 0.36 respectively, p < 0.005). The total effect of PL on mental well-being was 0.40 (p < 0.005), consisting of a direct effect of 0.27 (67.5%) and an indirect effect through physical activity of 0.13 (32.5%). Bootstrap confidence intervals (0.06-0.21) confirmed significant partial mediation. The findings affirm the embodied cognition perspective, suggesting that physical literacy plays an essential role in promoting mental well-being both directly and through  physical activity. This study provides empirical evidence for integrating physical literacy development into mental health promotion strategies within higher education contexts.
