- Abstract
Structured training is required to help improve the time speed performance of competitive swimmers. This study aims to analyse the effect of combined dryland strength training and swimming training programmes based on the best time on swimming performance in athletes with disabilities. The research subjects consisted of seven provincial-level swimming athletes with disabilities who underwent training camps in preparation for the Indonesia Paralympics Games. This research is experimental research with one group pretest-posttest design method. The training was conducted for 13 weeks with details of 3 dryland training sessions and eight swimming training sessions per week. Performance measurements were carried out by taking pre-test and post-test data on swimming speed with distances of 50 m, 100 m and 200 m according to the style of each athlete’s race number. IBM SPSS Statistics version 21 was used to analyse normality and test the effect of training. Wilcoxon test was used to test the significance of the effect of training. The average performance improvement for the pre-test was 3.42 ± 5.31, while the post-test result was 9.28 ± 7.20 (p < 0.05). In addition, the mean pre-test in elite athletes was 3.20 ± 6.34 and for the post-test 10.6 ± 6.76 (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the mean pre-test in sub-elite athletes was 4.00 ± 2.82 and for the post-test 6.00 ± 9.89 (p > 0.05). The study showed a significant effect of dryland strength and swimming training programmes on the swimming speed performance of athletes with disabilities.
