Upper Body Plyometrics in Junior Male Cricket Fast Bowlers

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

A six-week upper body plyometric training program will be used to investigate its impact on fast bowling speed in junior male cricket players in Guyana, using a Stalker Sport 2 radar gun.

Clinical Trial Description

This randomized pilot study will compare the effects of a six-week Upper Body Plyometric program with Upper Body Strength Training. After gaining ethical approval and baseline bowling speeds recorded, thirty under 19 club level fast bowlers will be assigned to two groups to complete either an upper-body plyometric or strength training program. Each group will participate in three (3) supervised exercise intervention sessions per week. Each 65-minute session will consist of a warm-up and cool-down program in addition to specific and routinely progressed upper body exercises as per each group's protocol. At the end of the intervention period, their bowling speeds will again be measured using a Stalker Sport 2 radar gun. ;
