Abstrak

This study aims to examine the relationship between arm muscle strength and arm length with the service performance of boys’ extracurricular volleyball students at SMA Negeri 1 Muara Padang. The sample consisted of 16 students using a correlational method. Results show that arm muscle strength has a strong significant correlation with service performance (r = 0.740 > r table = 0.518), arm length has a moderate significant correlation (r = 0.565 > r table = 0.518), and their combination also shows a moderate significant correlation (r = 0.562 > r table = 0.518). The simultaneous contribution of both variables to service performance is 58%, while 42% is influenced by other factors. This study confirms that arm physical ability is important for improving volleyball serve performance.
