Pencak silat is a traditional Indonesian martial art in which the ability to punch is a decisive technical component in winning a match. This study aimed to examine the effect of push-up, pull-up, and wheelbarrow drills training methods on right-hand punch ability among pencak silat athletes of Perguruan PSHT Satria Kridha, and to determine which method produced the most effective improvement. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental "Two Groups Pretest-Posttest Design" was employed. The population consisted of 21 athletes; all were taken as the sample using total sampling and divided equally by ordinal pairing into three groups of seven athletes, each receiving push-up, pull-up, or wheelbarrow drills training. Right-hand punch ability was measured using a 30-second punch test before and after an eight-week training program, and the data were analyzed with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test, the F homogeneity test, and paired-sample as well as independent t-tests using SPSS 23 at a 5% significance level. The results showed a significant effect of push-up training (t = 7.593; sig. = 0.001), pull-up training (t = 7.746; sig. = 0.001), and wheelbarrow drills (t = 8.796; sig. = 0.000) on right-hand punch ability, since t-count exceeded t-table (1.833). The comparative test among the three post-test groups produced t = 13.219 (sig. = 0.000), indicating a significant difference, with the push-up method resulting in the highest post-test mean (24.50) compared with pull-up (4.67) and wheelbarrow drills (3.21). It is concluded that push-up training is the most effective method for improving right-hand punch ability in pencak silat athletes and is recommended as a priority strength-training component for coaches.References
