Abstract
The present study was conducted on eighteen male Handball players (age: 15.83 ± 0.62 years) comprising of players training under the guidance of Punjab State coaches in Patiala (India). The main objective of the study was to find the status of mechanical power variables of leg extensor muscles in male handball players and to find the relationship between them. The experimental protocol developed by Bosco et al (1983), Mcguigan et al (2006) were used to measure the mechanical power variables of leg extensor muscles in male handball players. For the purpose of statistical analysis of the data, Karl Pearson‘s coefficient of correlation was calculated with the help of SPSS version 9.0. The results of this study indicate that there was a highly significant correlation exists between the squat jump flight time, squat jump height, countermovement jump height, countermovement flight time, Eccentric Utilization Ratio (EUR), Elasticity Index (EI) and peak power (0-15sec), peak power (45-60sec) and Mean Power (0-60sec).
