Abstract
The research problem emerged from the researcher's field observation of the technical performance level of the Qatari junior gymnastics team in executing the tucked back handspring on the floor exercise apparatus, which was found to be below the desired standard. The researcher attributed this deficiency to weak physical preparation among the athletes, particularly a lack of leg-specific strength. Therefore, the researcher conducted this study aiming to develop leg strength through a proposed training program that includes specialized strength exercises based on certain biomechanical variables, to assess their effect on the performance of this skill. One of the hypotheses of the study was that there would be statistically significant differences resulting from the use of leg-specific strength exercises, aligned with biomechanical variables, in improving the technical performance of the tucked back handspring. The experimental method was employed, and the research sample consisted of six Qatari junior gymnasts aged 10–12. The training program was implemented over three months, with three weekly training sessions, totaling 36 sessions. The researcher concluded that using leg-specific strength exercises within the proposed training program was effective in improving the technical performance of the targeted skill. Among the key recommendations was the adoption of the proposed program in all gymnastics training centers in Iraq to enhance leg-specific strength.
