- Abstract
At the 2017 national championship "Walikota Cup" in Yogyakarta, in the 200m freestyle event for swimmers between the age of 10 to 11 years, there were 41 participants and Yogyakarta represented 12 male swimmers. None of the swimmers have been included in the top three in any event because 200m freestyle is a middle course race that requires endurance and speed. This research was aimed at analyzing (1) the difference of interval and continuous training method on 200m freestyle achievements; (2) the difference between high and low arm strength and its effect on 200m freestyle achievements; and (3) The interaction of training method and arm strength and its effect on 200m freestyle achievements. The research made use of an experimental method with the use of 2x2 design. The sample used in the research were 20 male swimming athletes from Yogyakarta aged 10 to 11 years. The instruments used was a 200m freestyle swimming test measured with a stopwatch. The result of the research shows that (1) there is no significant effect of interval and continuous training method on 200m freestyle achievements p=0,988>0,05; (2) there are differences between high and low arm strength in how they affect 200m freestyle achievements p= 0,000<0,05; and (3) there is no interaction between training method and arm strength on 200m freestyle achievements p=0,332>0,05.
