    The aim of this study was to determine the effect of trapping exercise for 6 weeks on leg muscle strength and power in male college students. This was a quasi-experimental study with a research design of one-group pre-test/post-test design. The sample amounted to 11 male students. Trapping exercise were carried out for 6 weeks with a frequency of 3-times exercise per week. A back and leg dynamometer was used to measure strength and the Accupower was used to measure power. Strength and power were measured before and after the 6-week trapping training. Paired samples t test was used to compare pre-test and post-test. The results showed that there was a significant increase in the average strength between pre-test vs. post-test (104.50±18.10 vs. 114.40±20.60 kg, p=0.000). Likewise, the mean power between pre-test vs. post-test (636.20±58.30 vs 656.60±64.00 Joules, p=0.000). The conclusion was that trapping exercise for 6 weeks with a frequency of 3-times exercise per week increased strength and power in male college students.

    Selection of exercises for physical development for first-year male students of Duy Tan University in Danang, Viet Nam
    (Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de publicaciones, 2024) Hung, Nguyen Xuan; Khoa, Nguyen Huu Anh
    This study aimed to select and evaluate exercises for the physical development of first-year male students at Duy Tan University in Da Nang, Vietnam. Utilizing an experimental design, documentary analysis, interviews, and pedagogical testing, the study involved 32 experienced physical education lecturers to ensure exercise reliability. The experimental phase included 46 first-year male students, who were divided into two groups: a control group (n = 23) following the standard curriculum and an experimental group (n = 23) incorporating 19 additional exercises categorized into five groups: rapid strength development (4 exercises), strength development (6 exercises), endurance (4 exercises), flexibility (3 exercises), and dexterity (4 exercises). Over five months, both groups attended 36 classes. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences between the groups (p < 0.05), indicating that the experimental group showed notable improvements in physical fitness due to the newly selected exercises. As a result, the selected exercises were highly effective in developing the physical fitness of first-year male students at Duy Tan University in Da Nang, Vietnam
