The effect of Bulgarian (contrasting) training within exercises on developing strength endurance and forehand and backhand ground strokes in young tennis players

Abstract

The aim of the research was to identify the effect of the Bulgarian training method (contrasting) within exercises in developing strength endurance and forehand and backhand ground strokes for young tennis players. The researchers adopted the experimental method as it is the most appropriate method to address the research problem and achieve its objectives, especially with the design of the two equivalent groups (control and experimental). The research sample was the tennis players of the Shatt al-Arab Youth Club in Basra Governorate. The researchers concluded that the Bulgarian training method (contrasting) within exercises is important in raising the level of strength endurance and forehand and backhand ground strokes for young tennis players. Accordingly, the researchers recommended adopting the Bulgarian training method (contrasting) within exercises because it is important in raising the level of strength endurance and forehand and backhand ground strokes for young tennis players.
