CHAPTER III The data were collected on 20? white seventh and eighth grade boys at Essen Junior High School during the fall of 196?. The eves of the boys ranked from ll years and 9 months to 1“ years and 10 months. The classes were grouped by grade with two seventh and two eighth grade sections used for this study. The seventh and eighth grade boys took physical education for one semes- ter and study hall the other semester. The four first- semester physical education classes were used as the experi- mental mroup. while those students who had study hall the first semester acted as the control group. One seventh grade class and one eighth grade class had 32 boys each. while the other two classes had 35 boys each. Each class met either two times a week or three times a week. on alternate weeks. for 1% weeks. Time was taken from this study for a teacher's workshop and Thanksgiving vacation. a total of three days. The test battery was administered to both the experi- mental and the control groups preceedinq and following s In. week period. This required a total of six days. al sthen Two programs of daily cslisthenics were used for this study -- Program A and Program 8. Program A was used on the 15 16 odd numbered days during the 14-week period. while Program B was used on the even numbered days. Both programs. oonsistins of eleven exercises. are shown in Appendix A. These two pro- grams were chosen so the boys would not perform the same exercises throughout the lh-week training period. This was an attempt to relieve any boredom which may be encountered in a training program. The same calisthenic prosram was administered to each of the four physical education classes each day they met. The amount of time during class spent exercising varied between the groups. The fifteen-minute plan was applied to one seventh and one eighth grade class as was the five-minute plan. The random assignments for the classes were as follows: Class m use. i let 8th grade class 5 Min. II lst 7th grade class 15 Min. III 2nd 7th grade class 5 Kin. IV 2nd 8th grade class 15 Min. The calisthenic exercises were selected from those recom- mended by Steinhsus (31) and Hillcourt (13). Exercises were selected so as to develop overall physical fitness and not fitness of one particular muscle group. The date on any boy who failed to participate in this celisthenic program seven or more times. due to illness or not being dressed. was dropped from this study. A bell. operated by the physical education teacher with a stop watch. notified the students when one exercise in the 17 plan was completed. This was to insure that the some amount of time was spent on each section of the calisthenio plan by all classes. Upon commend by the teacher. the students im- mediately started the next exercise. Jumping Jack: Starting Position -- The subject stood in an erect posi- tion with his arms at his sides and his feet toeether. movement -- The subject abducted both arms in a continuous circle until they met over his head. At the same time. the subject jumped a couple of inches into the sir'snd abducted his feet to slightly wider than shoulder width. On the second motion. he again jumped a couple of inches vertically and simultaneously adducted his arms and feet to their orisinsl position. This movement pattern was referred to as a single jumping jack. Toe Touch: Starting Position -- The subject stood in an erect posi- tion with his arms abducted to shoulder level and his feet alflucted to slightly wider than shoulder width. Eovement -- The subject bent forward. keeping his knees straight. and touched his left foot with his right hand. 'Upon completing this movement. the subject returned to his starting position. The some movement was then per- formed only touching the right foot with the left hand followed immediately by returnins to the starting 3. 4. 5. 18 position. This movement pattern was referred to as a sinsle too touch. Vertical Jump to 5 Squat: Starting Position -- The suchct stood erect with his hands at his side and his feet abducted to shoulder width. Movement -- The subJect bent his knees and extended his arms down past his sides. The Jump was accomplished by simultaneously extending the knees and thrusting the arms upward. The subJects were instructed to land in a half- squat. immediately starting another vertical Jump. Raised-Leg Push-Up: Starting Position -- The subJect laid flat on his stomach with his knees extended. his legs abducted and his ankles flexed dorsally. His hands were placed palms down next to his shoulders. with the elbows adducted. Movement -- The subject extended his right leg maximally. while simultaneously extending his elbow Joints thus raising the rest of his body. Keeping the right leg extended. the subJect lowered his body until his chest Just barely touched the floor. This was referred to as a raised-leg pushdup. After one-half the time seement had elapsed. the right leg was lowered and the left leg was extended and the arm action repeated. Arm Pull: Starting Position -- The subJect stood erect with his feet together and his arms abducted to shoulder level. 6. 7. l9 hovcment -- rhe subject used a ballistic movement to ho: sontally extend his arms with the hands supinated maximally until the range of motion was completed and the arms returned to the starting position. Alternate Leg-Raise (on stomach): Starting Position -- The subject laid flat on his stomach with his knees extended and less abducted. His arms were abducted slightly and his hands supinated so that the palms were flat on the floor. movement -- The subject extended his left leg maximally. while extending his knee. The leg was pliometrically lowered to the starting position. text. the right leg was extended and lowered in the some manner. This move- ment pattern was referred to as a single alternate leg raise. Single Lee Raise (on side): Starting Fosition -- The subject laid on his right side with his head resting on his right arm which was extended over the head with the palm down.

With his left knee extended. he then pliometricslly re- turned the leg to the starting position. The position was reversed for the raising of the right leg after one- hslf the time segment had elapsed. 9. 10. Forward Curl (on back): Starting Position - The subject laid on his back with his lees abducted. His hands were placed on his thighs with the palms down. hovement .. The subject curled his head, shoulders. and upper part of his back through trunk flexion as his hands slid down his thighs to his patellas. Once the petellas were touched. the subject pliometrically re- turned to the starting position. Grass flxerciseu Starting Position -- The subject stood erect with his lees abducted to shoulder width and his arms abducted overhead with palms pressed together. hovement -- The subject lowered the upper part of his body as he moved his hands to the ground between the heels of his feet. He then straightened his body and performed the movement again. each time trying to touch the ground farther behind his body.

Then he returned his legs to the starting position. The movement was repeated from the left side after one-half the time segment had elapsed. Sit-up: Starting Position -- The subject laid on his back with his legs extended and abducted about one foot. His hands were clasped behind the neck with fingers interlaced. movement -- The subject curled his head and shoulders forward and sat up. then twisted his body to touch the right elbow to the left knee. text. the subject returned to the starting position.
