📄 Abstract
The study aimed to investigate the impacts of complex training on selected fitness parameters such as speed, leg explosive power and leg strength among college-level male football players. Thirty participants were randomly divided into two groups: a complex training group (n=15) and a control group (n=15). The experimental group underwent an eight-week complex training program combining resistance and plyometric exercises, while the control group followed their routine activities. The training was organized into four progressive phases, emphasizing foundational strength, power development, and neuromuscular efficiency. Pre- and post-test data were analyzed using the dependent t-test at a 0.05 level of significance. The results revealed significant improvements in the experimental group for speed (t = 97.55), leg explosive power (t = 12.50), and leg strength (t = 23.19), while no significant changes were observed in the control group. These findings confirm that complex training effectively enhances physical performance variables crucial for football, particularly those related to explosive movements, strength, and agility. The study concludes that systematic complex training contributes to improved overall athletic performance among college level football players compared to traditional training methods.
