Abstract

The integration of local cultural elements such as traditional dance into martial arts training offers a potential pathway to enhance both technical proficiency and affective learning among young practitioners. This study aimed to develop and test a feasible and practical Shorinji Kempo training model, based on local dances from East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), to improve basic techniques and affective aspects in kenshi aged 9–12 years. This study used a 10-step Borg and Gall research and development framework involved expert validation, small-scale trials (30 kenshi), and large-scale trials (100 kenshi) across five dojos in Yogyakarta. The subjects in this study were kenshi aged 9-12 years with a total of 130 kenshi. Data were collected through interviews, field notes, evaluation sheets, validation questionnaires, and a Kenshi assessment rubric. Three training models were developed: “Gotong Royong” (based on Lego-Lego dance), “Gembira” (Cakalele dance), and “Spirit” (Moko Nona dance). Results from expert validation showed high feasibility (100%). Paired t-test analysis revealed significant improvements in basic technical skills (p = 0.000) and affective aspects following the intervention. The intervention using the three training models resulted in an 87% improvement in basic technical skills and a 93% improvement in affective aspects among the kenshi. This study demonstrates that the Shorinji Kempo training model, grounded in the philosophical movements of East Nusa Tenggara traditional dances, effectively enhances both technical and affective competencies among young kenshi aged 9–12, offering a culturally grounded pedagogical approach that supports holistic development. The findings suggest that integrating local dance philosophies into martial arts training improves both motor and affective learning in young practitioners, providing an engaging and culturally relevant training alternative.

Abstract

Lower limb muscle strength is crucial for functional human activities, providing body stabilization, maintaining posture, and enabling various movements. Insufficient training can hinder muscle protein synthesis, leading to diminished strength in the lower limbs. Regular training, particularly resistance exercises, is essential for improving this strength. Numerous training methods have been developed, such as resistance training, plyometric exercises, bodyweight exercises, isolation training, movement-based practices, and technology-assisted techniques, though their relative effectiveness remains a topic of ongoing evaluation. This literature review aims to assess the effectiveness of various lower limb strength training methods across diverse populations, including adolescents, athletes, and older adults. The review involved a systematic search of PubMed and Google Scholar, using defined inclusion and exclusion criteria, resulting in 16 eligible studies. The effectiveness of each training method was analyzed by comparing study findings, which incorporated different research designs. All included studies indicated significant improvements in lower limb strength, although the magnitude of the improvements varied based on training intensity, duration, and participant characteristics. Compound and resistance training demonstrated comprehensive strength gains, plyometric exercises improved explosive power, and isolation training was particularly effective for strengthening specific muscle groups. Among older adults, combined training proved to be the most effective, enhancing both strength and balance, as well as functional mobility. These results highlight that no single training method is universally superior, underscoring the importance of customizing exercise programs to meet individual needs and objectives.
