Implication

Randomized controlled trial shows functional training improves lower-limb strength in adolescents, suggesting combined approaches may enhance performance.

Key Points

Functional training improved standing reach height and approach reach height significantly over 12 weeks.
Only the traditional resistance training group showed significant improvement in agility, while other measures remained unchanged.
Both training types demonstrated no significant differences in overall outcomes between the groups, indicating partial effectiveness.
Integrating both functional and traditional training may better support the development of vital lower-limb strength in youth athletes.
