Abstract

The purpose of the study was to investigate the power and peak torque of selected muscles among soccer players. For this study Quadriceps, Hamstrings, Gastrocnemius and Tibia muscles were selected as criterion variables. Power and Peak torque of each muscles were measured by isokinetic machine. Thirty seven subjects were selected from soccer team. The collected data was statistically analyzed by using dependent’t ’ test. It was found that there was significant difference on power between Quadriceps and Hamstrings and peak torque between Quadriceps and Hamstrings and Gastrocnemius and Tibia muscles of soccer players. However no significant difference was found on the power between Gastrocnemius and Tibia muscles of soccer players.
