Comparison of Relative Strength among Different Athletes of Throwing Events
The purpose of the study was to compare the relative strength among the different athletes of throwers. The subjects were selected from the male throwers of All India Inter University Athletic Championship (India). Thirty (30) male throwers were divided into three groups of ten (10) each was selected as the subject for the study. The throwers performance or scores in respective body weight were presented to compare the relative strength among the different throwing events of throwers. The relative strength of throwers can be obtained by dividing recorded performance or score with body weight of the subjects. To see the significant difference of relative strength among the different throwing events of throwers the analysis of variance “F-ratio” was applied at.05 level of significance. For further analysis “Post-Hoc Test” (LSD Test) was applied. The obtained value of “F-ratio” (3.35) was greater than the tabulated value (2.51). The analysis of data reveals that there is a significant difference in the two groups out of three groups in their relative strength, however group I had shown highest relative strength as its mean value is highest among all groups.
