ABSTRACTThis study aims to determine the effect of pull over training and pulley weight training on the smash ability of volleyball and to determine the difference in the effect of the two. This research is a field experiment research with a randomized group pretest-post test design. The population is the volleyball club players in the city of Makassar with 100 male athletes who are then randomized into a sample of 60 people, each of which is 30 people in the pull over training group and 30 from the pulley weight training group. The sampling technique used was random. The data analysis technique used is the t-test analysis technique. The results of the study concluded that: (1) There was a significant effect of pull over training on the smash ability in volleyball, where (to = 15.03220684> t table 0.05 = 2.045). (2) There is a significant effect of pulley weight training on the smash ability in volleyball, where (to = 7,2479> t table 0,05 = 2,045). (3) There is a significant difference between pull over training and pulley weight training on the smash ability in volleyball, where (to = 11.582016289> t table 0.05 = 2,000). From these results it can be concluded that pull over training and pulley weight training can improve the smash ability in volleyball games. However, in this case, pull over training is better than pulley weight training in affecting the smash ability in volleyball games. ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh latihan pull over dan latihan beban katrol terhadap kemampuan smash pada permainan bolavoli dan untuk mengetahui perbedaan pengaruh antara keduanya. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian experiment lapangan dengan rancangan randomized group pretest-post test desain. Populasi adalah pemain bolavoli club di kota Makassar dengan jumlah 100 orang atlet putra yang kemudian dirandom menjadi sampel sebanyak 60 orang yang masing-masing 30 orang kelompok latihan pull over dan 30 orang kelompok latihan beban katrol.

Hasil penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa : (1) Ada pengaruh yang signifikan latihan pull over terhadap kemampuan smash pada permainan bolavoli, dimana (to = 15,03220684 > t tabel 0,05 = 2,045). (2) Ada pengaruh yang signifikan latihan beban katrol terhadap kemampuan smash pada permainan bolavoli, dimana (to = 7,2479 > t tabel 0,05 = 2,045). (3) Ada perbedaan pengaruh yang signifikan antara latihan pull over  dan latihan beban katrol terhadap kemampuan smash pada permainan bolavoli, dimana (to = 11,582016289 > t tabel 0,05 = 2,000).

Sarcopenia is a condition which characterized by loss of muscle mass, muscle strength and muscle function due to aging. Some study found that sarcopenia prevalence was more common in men than women. This study aims to determine the comparison of sarcopenia diagnostic component between two group ages in men by observing and comparing muscle mass, handgrip strength and usual gait speed according to Asian Working Group on Sarcopenia (AWGS) diagnostic criteria that analyzed by Independent Sample T Test. The sample size with consecutive sampling technique was 149 mens which divided into two groups based on ages of elderly over 60 years (n = 73) and young adult between 18-40 years (n = 76). From the independent sample t test results, there was significant difference of muscle mass mean, handgrip strength mean and gait speed mean between elderly group and young adult group by 2.467 (SD ± 0.1454) kg/m2 (t(98.350) = -16.969; p = 0.000), 10.455 (SD ± 1.0983) kg (t(147) = -9.519; p = 0.000) and 0.4753 (SD ± 0.2808) m/s (t(11.636) = -16.747; p = 0.000) which means along with increasing age, sarcopenia diagnostic components value, i.e. muscle mass, muscle strength, and physical performance will also decrease.
