Abstract

Physical condition ability is an important element in achieving martial arts achievement. Attention to improving the quality of physical condition must pay attention to factors that adhere to the principle of periodisation, the energy system used, and the predominance of biomotor components. There are several variations on the physical condition test for sparring category pencak silat athletes. Therefore the author wants to examine the dominant physical condition components for 14-17 year old sparring category pencak silat athletes. This study aims to analyse the dominant physical condition components in the sparring category pencak silat. This research method is quantitative with a descriptive approach to 43 sparring category pencak silat athletes aged 14-17 years. The instruments used are 9 physical condition instruments for sparring category pencak silat athletes. Data analysis techniques using percentages and a Likert scale of 1-5. The results showed that of the 9 (nine) test items carried out, there were 5 dominant physical components in the "very good" category, namely speed (13.9%), arm power (32.6%), leg power (44.1%), agility (53.5%), and aerobic endurance (44.1%). It can be concluded that there are five dominant physical condition components in pencak silat. It is recommended that the five elements of physical components need to be prioritised in providing training portions. However, this research needs to be conducted again considering that the subjects in this study were limited to the scope of Jember district athletes.
