Abstract

The aim of this study is to identify the effect of the proposed training program using body resistance exercises (TRX) on the level of some physical and skill abilities of female gymnasts in the governorates of Jerusalem. The study was conducted on a sample of (30) gymnasts at the Rosary Sisters School, they were divided into two groups, the experimental group and its members (15) and the control group and its members (15), after ensuring the homogeneity and equivalence of the sample. The control group was subjected to the traditional program, and the experimental group was subjected to the proposed training program. The researchers used the experimental method for its relevance to the nature of the study. The results showed that the proposed training program using total body resistance exercises (TRX) affected all the variables under study with statistical significance between the pre and post measurements, in favor of the post measurement, and the percentage change was as follows: (push up test (30%), setups test (52%), Vertical jump test (60%), flamingo test (54%), dive roll (63%), backward roll (38%), handstand (42%), cartwheel (23%), front scale (52%)). The results also showed that the regular training program affected in all the variables under study with statistical significance between the pre and the post measurements and in advantage of the post-measurement, and the percentage change was as follows: ((push up test (31%), setups test (26%), Vertical jump test (10%), flamingo test (18%), dive roll (16%), backward roll (24%), handstand (15%), cartwheel (27%), front scale (18%)). The results showed that there were statistically significant differences in all study variables between the experimental group and the control group and in favor of the experimental group, except the push up test and the cartwheel skill were in favor to the control group, The researchers recommended several recommendations, the most important of which is the application of a training program using body resistance exercises (TRX) to develop physical abilities and The skills of the gymnasts.
