Title:	Marietta College's Strength Training Program
Author:	Haines, Brian Paul
Description:	Coaches are always looking for ways to improve their athletes’ performance and win more games. Possibly the greatest factor to a team is the strength and conditioning aspect of gaining an upper hand on the opponent. In 2005, the Marietta College Football team switched from the “wave cycle” to The Stiggens Computerized Strength Training Program. This study was designed to investigate the differences in strength gains throughout the process of weight lifting between the two programs. In this research, the researcher looked at several outcomes. Data from squat, bench and power clean will be used to determine the value of the two programs. The statistical tests that were administered were paired-sample t tests and a descriptive analysis. The researcher has analyzed the change in score for the power clean, squat and bench press exercises examining the changes from the “wave cycle” to The Stiggens Computerized Strength Training Program. The two programs have been evaluated by comparing the strength increased for the athletes in the two programs.
