Abstract

BACKGROUND: Closed kinetic chain exercise have been promoted as more functional and more appropriate than open kinetic chain exercises. Limited research exists demonstrating the effects of closed kinetic chain on gluteus, quadriceps and functional performance. Thus the purpose of the study was to investigate the relationship between open kinetic and closed kinetic chain exercise in improving functional performance and strength of lower limb extensors. OBJECTIVES: The study was compare to open kinetic and closed kinetic chain exercise in improving jumping performance in basketball players. METERIALS & METHODS: PARTICIPANTS: 30 basketball players were randomly allocated into 2 groups, with age group between 18-25 years male collegiate athletes with mean age group of 121.76 DESIGN: Experimental study design. SETINGS: Basketball Ground, Nandha School Campus. SAMPLING: Randomized sampling technique. METHODOLOGY: 30 participants were included in the study and they were randomly allocated into two groups group A &group B.15 participants in group A were instructed to perform closed kinetic chain exercise for 30 sec with 15 repetitions. Rest period for 10 sec in between the each exercise. 15 participants in group B were instructed to perform open kinetic chain exercise for 30 sec with 15 participants. Rest period for 10 secs in between the each exercise. The participants were instructed to perform the above protocols for 6 weeks. Vertical jump performance & lower leg muscle strength were measured for all these groups at the baseline before & at the end of 6 weeks after training programme. OUTCOME MEASURES: Vertical jump test: to measure vertical jump performance One repetitive maximum: to measure the muscle strength RESULTS: Study revealed statistically significant differences (p<0.01) between closed kinetic chain exercise (Group A), open kinetic chain exercise (Group B) in improving the lower leg extensors muscle strength, and no statistically difference between the groups in vertical jump performance. CONCLUSION: Closed kinetic chain exercise (Group A) is more effective than open kinetic chain exercise (Group B) in improving the gluteal and quadriceps muscles strength, whereas there is no difference seen in vertical jump performance in between the two groups.
