Korfball athletes test new training to boost strength and reduce injury risk

This study looked at how a 10-week complex training program—mixing heavy weights with explosive jumps—affects the physical fitness, balance, and shooting of Chinese national korfball players. Twenty-four athletes completed the program, and researchers measured changes in strength, jumping ability, and limb symmetry. The goal was to see if this training could improve performance and help prevent injuries in this unique sport.
