After that, the data is processed statistically to test the normality with Liliefors test at significance level 0,05α. The hypothesis is there is effect of standing dumbbell triceps extension exercise toward the strength of arm and shoulder muscles. Based on t test analysis, Tresult is 4.17 and Ttable is 1,895, which means Tresult > Ttable. It can be concluded that Ha is accepted.
