| Abstract | Objective: This study evaluated and compared the effectiveness of AI-driven and hybrid strength and skill training regimens on selected physical fitness and basketball performance variables among female basketball players. Design: A randomized controlled experimental design was adopted. Participants: A total of 120 intercollegiate female basketball players aged 18–21 years from the Coimbatore district, Tamil Nadu, were randomly assigned to three groups: Expert-Prescribed Training (EPT), Hybrid Training (HT) and Control Group (CG). Intervention: All experimental groups completed a structured 12-week training programme. A pilot study was conducted beforehand to standardise training loads. An AI generative tool was used to develop individualised schedules, which were refined through expert corrections and validation. The hybrid regimen integrated AI-generated precision with expert supervision. Training was conducted five days per week for 60–75 minutes per session. Outcome Measures: Strength (core strength) and basketball performance variables (dribbling speed, passing accuracy and shooting accuracy) were assessed. Data were analysed using ANCOVA and Scheffé’s post-hoc test. Results: Both AI-driven and hybrid groups showed significant improvements in all variables (p < 0.05), with the hybrid group demonstrating superior gains. Combining AI-based personalisation with expert judgement enhanced training efficiency and skill development. Conclusions: Hybrid training proved more effective than AI-only or conventional approaches in improving strength and basketball performance among female athletes. Further studies are recommended to examine long-term outcomes and broader applicability. |
