The Effect of Band Exercise on the Arm Muscle Endurance and the Accuracy of Elementary School Students’ Archery

: This study is initated from the problem of the physical condition of beginner athletes which has not reached its maximum potential. Band exercise is physical training that is suitable for beginners because it does not use weight other than athletes’ own body. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of band exercise on the arm muscle endurance and the accuracy in 20-meter archery. This research is an experimental study that uses one group pre-post-test design research. The number of subjects in this study was 20 athletes. The data were analysed to test the hypothesis using t-paired t-test (before-after). The results show that there is an increase of mean score of the posttest compared to that of the pretest. The results of t count side learning test was 7.255> 2.093 with the significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). The results of the t-test on accuracy in archery was t count 12.839 > 2.093 with the significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05) with the significance level of 0.05% (determining the level of meaningfulness). Based on that, the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected. It can be concluded that band exercise has an effect on the endurance of arm muscle and the accuracy of archery done by the elementary school students.
