Exploring the Impact of Functional Physical Training on Enhancing Physical Education Learning Interests Among Male School Basketball Players

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

This research explores the impact of functional physical training (FPT) on enhancing physical education learning interests among male school basketball players. FPT, which emphasizes sport-specific movements and real-life functional exercises, has gained recognition for its potential to improve physical fitness and motor skills while fostering greater engagement in physical education programs. By examining the relationship between FPT and student motivation, this study aims to highlight how integrating FPT into physical education can enhance students' interest in the subject, particularly in the context of basketball training. The findings suggest that functional training not only boosts physical performance but also cultivates intrinsic motivation, promoting long-term engagement and a positive attitude toward physical activity. This research underscores the importance of incorporating FPT in school curricula to create more effective and engaging physical education programs that encourage lifelong fitness habits.
