A study of relationship of abdominal muscles strength endurance and static balance to Olympic weightlifting skill snatch performance

The Present study was to investigate the relationship of Abdominal Muscles strength Endurance and static Balance to Olympic weightlifting skill performance Snatch. The study was conducted on (n=100) male weight lifters of different universities, who represented the All India Interuniversity Weightlifting Competition in last 3 years 2014, 2015 and 2016. Weightlifting skill Snatch performance data was collected from the official records of Competition score sheets. Abdominal muscle strength endurance was measured by Bent Knee sit ups test (Maximum counting in 30 Sec) and Stork Stand Test (Minutes/Seconds) was used to measure static balance. Pearson`s Product Moment Correlation (P>. O5) was being used to find out the relationship of Abdominal Muscles strength and Static Balance to Weightlifting skill Snatch performance. The results of present study have shown Abdominal Muscles strength Endurance (r= 0.65) Significant relation to Weightlifting Skill snatch Performance, where as no significant relationship was found between Static Balance (r=0.11) and Weightlifting Skill snatch Performance.
