This study aims to analyze the strength of the arms, back and legs on the quality of power control in billiards. Material and Methods This research belongs to the type of quantitative research with a correlational design that aims to analyze the magnitude of the influence exerted by the physical components on the quality of its power control. A total of 43 male pool athletes aged 14 to 20 years participated in this study. The instruments used in the study were a 30-second push-up test to measure arm strength, as well as a back and leg dynamometer to measure back and leg strength. Measurement of power control test by means of a cue ball is placed in the place of the chocolate to start. Players must hit the cue ball to the front of the table, aiming for the cue ball to stop as close to the table cushion in front of it as possible. Data analysis was carried out to produce data according to the research objective, namely to calculate the correlation between the independent and dependent variables. The value above will appear as a table that displays the sig. value and the correlation value that can be converted to a percentage. The calculation used SPSS version 23. Results The results of the multiple correlation analysis in this study reported no significant relationship between arm, back, and leg strength with power control (sig. 0.517). Conclusions It can be concluded that there is no correlation between leg strength, back strength, and arm muscle strength on the quality of power control of billiard players, and the correlation given by the variable leg strength, back strength, and arm muscle strength on the quality of power control is 5%. © 2024 H.S.
