The objective of the study is to comprehensively evaluate the effects of resistance training on the improvement of lower limb motor function of basketball players. During the study the following methods were applied: Elsevier, SCI-E, CNKI and other databases were searched to collect the relevant randomized controlled experiments on the effects of resistance training on the lower limb muscle strength of basketball players. The search time was set to March 2020, and the references of the included literatures were retrospectively searched. The quality of the literature was evaluated. Statistical analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3 software to compare the effects of training programs and intensity on the sports performance of basketball players using odds ratio and 95 % confidence interval as effect indicators. As a result, a total of 14 literatures and 313 experimental samples were included. Compared with the control group, the results showed that resistance training could significantly improve the running height of basketball players (SMD=-4.92, 95 %CI (- 6.31, -3.54), P<0.00001). The resistance training could significantly improve the longitudinal jumping of basketball players (SMD=-1.69, 95 %CI (-2.11, -1.28), P<0.00001). The resistance training could improve the speed of basketball players at 20m sprints (SMD=0.24, 95 %CI (0.04, 0.43), P=0.02). The resistance training could significantly improve the standing long jump of basketball players (SMD=-11.46, 95 %CI (-18.09, - 4.83), P=0.0007). It was concluded that resistance training can improve the lower limb movement ability of basketball players.
