Abstract

The study aimed to investigate the use of high-intensity exercises combined with beta-alanine supplementation and their effect on explosive power in football players of Al-Karkh Club. The researcher employed the experimental method, as it was the most appropriate approach to address the research problem. A single experimental group design with pre- and post-testing was used. The research sample consisted of 25 players, representing 5% of the research population, who were deliberately selected. The researcher concluded that the explosive power exercises used played a significant role in developing this ability among the study sample. Accordingly, the researcher recommends the use of explosive power exercises due to their clear and effective impact on enhancing this physical capacity.
