The purposes of this research are to analyze (1) the effect of wave squat to increase leg muscle strength; (2). Effect of double leg hop progression towards an increase in leg muscle strength; (3) the effect of leg press exercise to increase leg muscle strength; (4) the effects of exercise sitting calf to the power of leg muscles; (5) different effects of leg press and sitting calf to increase leg strength; (6) different effects of wave squat and double-leg hop progression to the increase of the leg power. The research target is students in football UKM in UNTAD, while the number of samples is 42 people. The type of research is quantitative with quasi-experimental methods. The design of the study uses matching only design and data analysis using Anova. The data retrieval process performed by leg power jump test DF and limb muscle power, uses back and leg dynamometer during the pretest and posttest. Furthermore, the outcome data is analyzed by using SPSS 16.0 series. The results showed that there is a significant difference between the wave squat compared to double leg hop workout progression in leg muscle strength; with the Sig. 0,000 less than 0.05 (p <0.05). whereas for leg power there is a significant difference between the leg press exercise when compared with calf sitting exercises to improve leg power proved; with the Sig. 0,000 less than 0.05 (p <0.05). Based on the above analysis, it can be conclude that there is an increase in leg muscle strength and leg power to each group after being given training from the t-test. In addition, there are differences among the three groups, from the increase in leg muscle strength and leg power through ANOVA test results.
