Abstract

This study aims to review the literature related to the influence of living in highlands and lowlands on cardiovascular ability. Highlands, with an altitude of more than 2,500 meters above sea level, have unique environmental characteristics such as lower oxygen levels, lower air pressure, and cooler temperatures. In contrast, lowlands typically have more stable conditions and higher oxygen levels. These environmental differences are believed to have a significant impact on an individual's cardiovascular ability. In this literature review, we evaluated various studies comparing cardiovascular parameters such as aerobic capacity, VO2 max, resting heart rate, and other physiological adaptations between populations living in highlands and lowlands. The results of various studies show that individuals living at high altitudes tend to have better physiological adaptations in terms of oxygen use efficiency and higher aerobic capacity. This is due to the body's adaptation to chronic hypoxia, which increases red blood cell production and oxygen transport efficiency. However, there are also some higher cardiovascular challenges at high altitudes, such as an increased risk of pulmonary hypertension and heart disease. In contrast, low-lying populations generally show more stable cardiovascular parameters but are less adaptive to hypoxia conditions. In conclusion, living at high altitudes and lowlands exert different influences on cardiovascular ability, with each environment providing its own advantages and challenges. More research is needed to understand deeper adaptation mechanisms and their implications for long-term cardiovascular health

Abstract

This research was conducted on the basis of a lack of knowledge about the psychological characteristics of high school female futsal athletes in Bengkulu City. This study aims to determine the Psychological Characteristics of High School Female Futsal Athletes in Bengkulu City. This type of research is descriptive research with survey method.  The subjects of this study were all athletes who were active in the high school women's futsal club in Bengkulu City consisted of 3 schools namely SMAN 1 Bengkulu City, SMAN 6 Bengkulu City and SMAS Muhammadiyah 4 Bengkulu City which amounted to 57 athletes. Instruments and data collection techniques used in this study were questionnaires and interviews. The data analysis technique used was descriptive analysis with percentages. The results stated that the percentage of questionnaires in general was 56% good, the motivation aspect questionnaire was 65% very good, the self-confidence aspect questionnaire was 44% good, the anxiety control aspect questionnaire was 42% quite good, the mental preparation aspect questionnaire was 35% good, the teamwork aspect questionnaire was 46% very good, the concentration aspect questionnaire was 37% quite good and the interview was generally 54% good. It can be concluded that, aspects of the psychological characteristics of high school female futsal athletes in Bengkulu City that need to be improved and improved are aspects of anxiety control and concentration

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to examine the effects of Fartlek and continuous training and training motivation on physical fitness among senior high-school students. Methods: A quasi-experimental 2 × 2 factorial design involved 40 students assigned according to training model and high or low motivation. Physical fitness was assessed using the Indonesian Student Fitness Test (TKSI), and data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and Tukey tests. Results: Continuous training produced higher fitness scores than Fartlek training (F = 8.11), while motivation significantly affected fitness (F = 7.62). A significant interaction between training model and motivation was identified (F = 7.33). The highest fitness score occurred in the continuous-training/high-motivation group (M = 23.00). Conclusion: Continuous training was more effective, particularly among highly motivated students, confirming that training effectiveness depends on motivational characteristics
