Abstract : Physical fitness is a fundamental component of badminton performance and athlete development. This study aimed to describe the physical fitness profile of winning badminton athletes aged 12 to 16 years who competed in the 2025 National Circuit event in Bandung. A quantitative descriptive design was employed involving 10 PB Jaya Pratama athletes selected through total sampling. Physical fitness was assessed using the 30 second push up test, badminton-specific 6 point agility test, Bleep Test (VO₂max), and sit and reach test. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Cohen’s d effect size analysis. The results showed that 70% of athletes were classified in the high category for arm strength and 50% in the high category for flexibility. Agility was predominantly classified in the moderate category (60%), while endurance (VO₂max) was predominantly classified in the low category (70%). Effect size analysis revealed a very large deviation for VO₂max (d = min2.08), a moderate effect for agility (d = 0.57), and small effects for arm strength (d = 0.35) and flexibility (d = 0.31). These findings indicate that aerobic endurance remains the primary physical component requiring improvement among junior badminton athletes. For coaches, the results emphasize the importance of monitoring multiple fitness components and prioritizing endurance and agility development within training programs. The findings may serve as a reference for athlete evaluation and training optimization.
Abstrak : Kebugaran fisik merupakan komponen fundamental dari performa bulu tangkis dan pengembangan atlet. Studi ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan profil kebugaran fisik atlet bulu tangkis pemenang berusia 12–16 tahun yang berkompetisi di ajang Sirkuit Nasional 2025 di Bandung. Desain deskriptif kuantitatif digunakan dengan melibatkan 10 atlet PB Jaya Pratama yang dipilih melalui pengambilan sampel total. Kebugaran fisik dinilai menggunakan tes push-up 30 detik, tes kelincahan 6 poin khusus bulu tangkis, Tes Bleep (VO₂max), dan tes sit and reach. Data dianalisis menggunakan statistik deskriptif dan analisis ukuran efek Cohen’s d. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa 70% atlet diklasifikasikan dalam kategori tinggi untuk kekuatan lengan dan 50% dalam kategori tinggi untuk fleksibilitas. Kelincahan sebagian besar diklasifikasikan dalam kategori sedang (60%), sedangkan daya tahan (VO₂max) sebagian besar diklasifikasikan dalam kategori rendah (70%). Analisis ukuran efek mengungkapkan deviasi yang sangat besar untuk VO₂max (d = min2,08), efek sedang untuk kelincahan (d = 0,57), dan efek kecil untuk kekuatan lengan (d = 0,35) dan fleksibilitas (d = 0,31). Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa daya tahan aerobik tetap menjadi komponen fisik utama yang perlu ditingkatkan di antara atlet bulu tangkis junior. Bagi pelatih, hasil ini menekankan pentingnya memantau berbagai komponen kebugaran dan memprioritaskan pengembangan daya tahan dan kelincahan dalam program pelatihan. Temuan ini dapat berfungsi sebagai referensi untuk evaluasi atlet dan optimalisasi pelatihan.
