Abstract

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of weight training and Fartlek in improving the running speed of trainee teachers in the 100-meter event. The study aims to determine which training method is more effective in enhancing running speed. The study participants were randomly assigned to either weight training or fartlek groups and underwent their respective training programs for four weeks. The running speed of both groups was evaluated and compared using a standardized assessment tool. The results of this study will contribute to the existing knowledge on the benefits and limitations of weight training and Fartlek in improving running speed. The t-test showed that there is no significant difference between the two means among both training groups and its proven that both weight training and Fartlek training is suitable is improving the running speed of trainee teachers in 100-meter event. This study is expected to provide valuable information for coaches, trainers, and physical educators in developing effective training programs for athletes and physical education students. and reduce labor costs and water wastage and increase productivity and efficiency.
