Effect of Warm – up by Circuit Training Before Physical Education Program.

บทคัดย่อ

The purposes of this research were to : 1) study the effects of warm-up techniques on motor fitness, and 2) compare motor fitness between regular warm-up and circuit training techniques. The subjects, which consisted of 80 Prathom Suksa 2 students of Kasetsart University Laboratory School, were equally devided into 2 groups. The control group received regular warm – up while the experimental group received circuit training warm up that consisted of 7 different stations as follows : on the spot jogging, rotation, clap jump, stride stretch, windmill, v-sit, and pull-knee jump. Data were collected by means of recording scores, before and after treatment : on standing long jump, time shuttle run, sit-up, push-up and five minutes distance run. The data were, analyzed by ways of t-test and analysis of covariance. The findings were as follows : 1) there were significant differences of motor fitness scores at the .05 level between the pre and post-test for both the control and experimental groups ; 2: after treatment, there were significant differences of scores on standing long jump and time shuttle run at the .05 level between the control and experimental groups, but no significant difference of scores on sit-up, push up and five minutes distance run between the two groups.
