About this study
Official title: Comparative Effects of Hang Clean and Half Squat Training Program on Vertical Jump Performance and Strength Among Basketball Players
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the effects of hang clean and half squat training programs on vertical jump performance and strength in male basketball players aged 18-35 years. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does a hang clean training program improve vertical jump performance in basketball players? Does a half squat training program improve vertical jump performance in basketball players? Researchers will compare the hang clean training group to the half squat training group to see if there is a significant difference in the improvement of vertical jump performance and strength. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled and allocated in group A \& B through sealed envelop method by Non-probability Convenient random sampling technique. Subjects in Group A will receive hang clean training. Group B will receive half squat training, attend pre- and post-testing assessments of vertical jump performance and strength
Read the detailed description
Explosive strength is a crucial factor in basketball performance, and various training programs have been developed to improve it. The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to determine the effectiveness of a 12-weeks hang clean training program versus a 12-week half squat training program in improving vertical jump performance and strength in male basketball players aged 18-35 years. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is hang clean training effective in improving vertical jump performance and strength in basketball players? Is half squat training effective in improving vertical jump performance and strength in basketball players? Researchers will compare the hang clean training group to the half squat training group to see if there is a significant difference in the improvement of vertical jump performance and strength. Ethical approval is taken from ethical committee of Riphah International University, Lahore. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled and allocated in group A \& B through sealed envelop method by Non-probability Convenient random sampling technique. Study will be carried in basketball courts at Lahore. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the HCL or HSQ training group. Group A will receive hang clean training. Group B will receive half squat training.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
hang clean trainingOther
This include hang clean training thrice a week for twelve weeks
half squat trainingOther
This include half squat training thrice a week for twelve weeks
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Hang clean training | Experimental | Group A will perform hang clean training. Three sessions per week for twelve weeks. Receives: Other: hang clean training |
| Half squat training | Experimental | Group B will perform half squat training. Three sessions per week for twelve weeks. Receives: Other: half squat training |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
vertical jump test
The vertical jump and reach test through wall will be used to assess the maximum vertical jump height of each participant. The test will be performed by having participants stand side on to a wall with their feet shoulder-width apart. They will reach up with one hand and mark the highest point they can reach with their fingers on the wall. Then, they will perform a maximum vertical jump, landing on both feet, and mark the highest point they can reach at the peak of their jump on the wall. The difference between the two marks will be recorded as the vertical jump height in centimeters (cm). This metric will be used to quantify the improvement in vertical jump performance following the 12-week hang clean training program versus the 12-week half squat training program.
Measured: 0 week, 12week
1-repitition maximum for strength
The 1RM strength metric will be used to quantify the maximum weight an individual can lift in a single repetition of a specific exercise, in this case, the hang clean and half squat exercises. This metric will be used to assess the improvement in maximum strength following the 12-week hang clean training program versus the 12-week half squat training program.
Measured: 0 week, 12week

Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Pakistan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
