dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the effect of free weight training programme on the muscular strength performance of apparently healthy students of the Department of Human Kinetics Education, and muscular endurance performance of apparently healthy students of the Department of Human Kinetics Education students in Benue State University, Makurdi. Two hypotheses were formulated. The design of the study was pre-experimentalcontrol group design.Twenty-five (25) students sixteen male and nine female with mean age of 25.324.53 and height of 158.4014.33 were used in the study. The subjects were exposed to pre-test after which they under-went a five weeks training for three days a week, each training session lasting 45 minutes per day. At the end of five weeks training a post-test was conducted to make the comparisons of the two performances. The mean (), standard deviation (sd) and paired sample t-test were used to test the hypotheses at 0.05 level of significant. The paired sample t-test showed there was significant mean (x) different between pre-test and post test in the muscular strength performance pre-test M=15.08, SD=9.47, post-test M=25.00, SD=10.67, with a percentage difference of 34.43%, and in the muscular endurance performance, pre-test M=15.04, SD=7.89 post test, M=21.08, SD=6.72 with mean percentage difference 28.65%. This means free-weight training programme significantly affect the muscular strength performance of healthy students and muscular endurance performance of healthy students. Therefore, when free weight training programme is properly organized and executed will add value to the individual health fitness components of muscular strength and muscular endurances. The study thus recommended free weight training to be used to improve individual muscular strength performance and muscular endurance performance of healthy young men.
