| Abstract | ||
| Chapter One (Introduction): Individuals who are in charge of training continually seek modern approaches and methods. Therefore, the two researchers made use of functional power exercises that are laboring to train the muscular groups joining in performance in diverse method that is suiting the development explosive force and speed characterized strength of legs and, in turn, improving achievement. Aims of the Study: - Setting functional power exercises to develop the explosive and speed characterized forces of legs and long jump achievement of young females. - Identifying the effect of functional exercises in developing functional and speed characterized forces of legs and long jump achievement of young females. Hypothesis: - Functional power exercises have positive effect on developing the explosive and speed characterized forces of legs and long jump achievement of young females. Scope of the Study: - Human Scope: a sample of Diyala General Directorate of Education Team female players. - Periodic Scope: the period of time from jan.15.2015 to April.15.2015. - Spatial Scope: Diyala Stadium. Chapter Two (Theoretical Studies): The concepts and principles of (Functional Power Exercises), its significance, stages, in addition to the concept of (explosive and speed characterized forces), long jump, technical phases of the game and previous literature. Chapter Three (Methodology and Procedures): The researchers delineated the experimental method in dealing with the sample of the study which is consisting of (5) female players who were deliberately selected. The researchers, then, started the pre-test for the study group followed by applying the approach that is comprising functional power exercises on the experimental group of study for the period of (8) weeks, (3) training units per week. After being done with the training method, a post-test was made to identify differences. Chapter Four (Results Analysis & Discussion): In this chapter, results of the study are shown, analyzed and discussed in the light of the differences found between the pre and post tests. Results of the explosive and speed characterized forces of legs as well as players' achievements in long jump are shown. Afterwards, they were scientifically discussed depending on academic sources and references. Chapter Five (Conclusions & Recommendations): In the light of the study results, the researchers figured out the following conclusions: 1. Functional Power training assisted in developing explosive and speed characterized forces of legs. 2. Functional power training helped in improving long jump achievements among young female players. Recommendations: 1. The necessity to use functional power exercises to develop the explosive and speed characterized forces of legs. 2. Adopting functional power exercises in a way that is similar to skill performance to comprise training of working muscles. 3. Making use of this study by the Iraqi Athletics Federation and in training of teams. | ||
