The purpose of the study was to find out the Influence of strength training packages with and without additional resistance on leg explosive power and shoulder strength among basketball players. The study was conformed to forty-five (45) female basketball players were selected randomly as subjects from various departments of Bharathidasan University, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India. Their age ranged between 21 to 25 years. They were divided into three equal groups each group consisted of 15 players. Namely experimental group I (strength training with additional resistance), experimental group II, (strength training without additional resistance) and control group. They were tested twice before and after the training with respect to physical variables of leg explosive power and shoulder strength. The training period for this study was three alternative days per week, for eight weeks. The collected data were statistically analyzed by analysis of co-variance (ANACOVA) and the significance difference on experimental groups with the level of confidence was fixes as 0.05 levels. It was concluded that booth the experimental groups having more significant improvement on leg explosive power and shoulder strength than the control group.
