Arm muscle power is a physical fitness component that plays a crucial role in supporting the performance of shot put athletes. Insufficient arm muscle power prevents athletes from generating optimal putting force; therefore, an effective training program is required to enhance this capability. This study aimed to analyze the effect of varied bodyweight exercises on improving arm muscle power in female junior athletes from the Dumpang Athletics Club. A quantitative approach was employed using an experimental method with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The subjects consisted of eight female junior athletes selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using the Two-Hand Medicine Ball Put test before and after the bodyweight training program, and analyzed using a paired-sample t-test. The results indicated that varied bodyweight exercises had a significant effect on improving arm muscle power, with a calculated t-value (t-count) of 4.843, which exceeded the critical t-value (t-table) of 2.364. These findings demonstrate that the bodyweight training program effectively enhances arm muscle explosive power in female junior athletes.References
