Abstract Synopsis

  • The study examined how a 25-week structured training program influenced muscle strength, power, muscle structure, and throwing performance in experienced track and field throwers, showing significant improvements across these areas.
  • Results indicated notable gains in competitive performance, maximum strength (like snatch and squat), and muscle architecture, such as increased fascicle length in the vastus lateralis, especially after the different training phases.
  • There were strong correlations between improvements in muscle structure and performance, suggesting that the periodized training effectively enhanced both physical capabilities and athletic results in these athletes.]
