Abstract

Background Problem: The integration of interval training programs has emerged as a focal point for enhancing the cardiorespiratory endurance and muscular endurance of players. Research Objectives: The main purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of interval training program on cardiorespiratory endurance and muscular endurance of football payers. Methods: A total of thirty male football players (age 18-24 year) were selected from Imphal West District, Imphal, Manipur (India) who participated in the national level competition. The subjects were randomly assigned into two equal groups, experimental group (n = 15) and control group (n = 15). Before the intervention featuring a six-week interval training program five days of sessions per week (Monday to Friday) each lasting 60 minutes, groups underwent initial assessments through which Cooper’s 12-minute run/walk test for cardiorespiratory endurance and bent-knee sit-ups for muscular endurance. Pre and post-test scores underwent statistical analysis, utilizing descriptive statistics and the Analysis of Covariance test (ANCOVA). The level of significance was set at 0.05 level of confidence. Findings and Results: The experimental group showed improved scores in the cardiorespiratory endurance and muscular endurance compared to the control group (p < 0.05). The mean of the cardiorespiratory endurance and muscular endurance for pretest and posttest of the experimental group were 25.68 ± 25.85 and 27.82 ± 26.25 respectively. The mean of the cardiorespiratory endurance and muscular endurance for pre-test and post-test of the control group were 28.24 ± 28.42 and 32.58 ± 28.80 respectively. Conclusion: It was concluded that the interval training program group had shown significantly improved cardiorespiratory endurance and muscular endurance and the control group had insignificant improvement. It was confirmed that a six weeks interval training program was effective to improve the cardiorespiratory endurance and muscular endurance of football players.

Abstract

Background Problems: With the high demands of sports and the crave for success despite diminishing strength with ageing in the presence of disability, athletes are tempted to contravene the ADRV. Research Objectives: The study aimed to study paralympic athletes’ perspective of doping self-regulatory efficacy in Nigeria. Methods: Descriptive survey design was adopted for the study. A 13-item validated questionnaire (α= .74) was employed to collect data for the study. One-hundred and twenty-four male (81) and female (43) elite para-athletes (mean= 23.15 years, ±3.65) voluntarily participated in the study. ANOVA, PPMC, and Cramer’s V Chi-Square Coefficient Contingency were used to determine the relationship and difference across age, gender and sport type and the extent of the para-athletes’ likelihood to dope and confidence to avoid banned substances, respectively. Findings and Results: It indicated a significant effect of age on likelihood to dope at the p < 0.05 for all conditions (F (1, 123) = 45.84, p = 0.000). Therefore, the null hypothesis was rejected. Findings indicated no significance across gender (0.091, p > 0.05), sport (0.280, p > 0.05), and age (0.263, p > 0.05) on the likelihood to dope. Although, significant among older (0.022), female (0.024) para-athletes. Cramer’s V indicated a strong association when drugs would give immediate fitness (ɸ = 0.217), (ɸ = 0.243), and (ɸ = 0.263) across age, gender, and sport type respectively. Conclusion:  It is concluded among others that the para-athletes showed high self-efficacy and low likelihood to dope even in the presence of stressors. However, the ever-pressing need for the athlete’s body longing need for nutrition, oxygen, rest and staying in shape and top form for competing increased the possibility to use a banned drugs for your injury recovery among some older athletes. Psychological interventions are suggested combat the likelihood to dope given the experience levels or psychological dispositions of athletes.

Abstract

Background Problems: Scientific research exploring the comparative analysis of the physical, physiological, and anthropometric characteristics associated with the server and spiker positions in double-category sepak takraw remains relatively scarce. Research Objectives: This study aims to compare the physical, physiological, and anthropometric characteristics between players in the server and spiker positions in the double category of sepak takraw. Methods: The research method used is an observational study with a quantitative approach. This study consisted of 18 male sepak takraw athletes, with 9 athletes each playing as servers and 9 athletes playing as spikers. The statistical analyses were conducted utilizing the SPSS Version 22 application. Findings and Results: The results of this study showed that there were statistically significant differences in body height, aerobic capacity, and leg strength between server and speaker positions (p < 0.05). Meanwhile, there were no significant differences in the variables age, weight, BMI, fat percentage, speed, agility, and flexibility. Dynamic, attractive game requirements and manoeuvres in the air for players in the spiker position have the potential to contribute to superior VO2max values and increased leg muscle strength compared to players in the server position. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that athletes in the spiker position show superior anthropometric and physiological attributes compared to those in the server position. Different understandings of the different characteristics associated with each position in the sport of sepak takraw provide new insights and views for coaches and athletes themselves. In addition, it is hoped that this research will have implications for optimizing training programs that adapt to the demands of each position. Furthermore, these findings serve as a reference for talent search events that assist in the identification and development of athletes with optimal physiological profiles for their respective roles in double-category sepak takraw.

Abstract

Background Problems: Lack of variety in aerobic exercise can cause boredom and reduce motivation to increase VO2max. Research Objectives: This study aims to assess how much influence aerobic exercise has on increasing VO2max in amateur football athletes. This involves regularly monitoring and measuring changes in VO2max levels over time. Methods: This research used a pre-experimental method; the design used was a one-group pretest and posttest design. The study used total sampling to select a population and sample of 30 amateur athletes. The instrument used was the 15-minute balke test to determine the athlete's VO2max capacity. The method used aerobic training with a 400-metre run. The data analysis technique used descriptive statistical tests, and prerequisite tests were normality, homogeneity, and hypothesis testing using the t-test with the SPSS version 26 program. Findings and Results: The analysis of the data reveals a notable improvement in VO2max following aerobic exercise. The average VO2max value increased from 55.38 during the pretest to 70.70 in the posttest phase. This increase was substantiated by the t-test results, where the calculated t-value was 10.36. Consequently, this indicates a significant enhancement in VO2max post-exercise. Conclusion: Aerobic exercise has a crucial role in increasing VO2max in amateur football athletes. Good cardiorespiratory conditioning can help improve their endurance, performance, and recovery during training and competition.

Abstract

Background Problems: Judo is a sport that requires aerobic and anaerobic abilities. This is because the scoring in judo matches is different from other martial arts, where athletes will look for absolute 'ippon' points in one match. Therefore, training is needed that can support increasing aerobic and anaerobic capacity in judo athletes. Endurance training at high altitudes is a training method that is believed to have benefits for athletes' aerobic and aerobic capacity. Research Objectives: The study aims to examine the effect of endurance training on increasing the anaerobic and aerobic capacity of judo athletes based on the Special Judo Fitness Test (SJFT), which is a specific test for the sport of judo that can describe anaerobic and aerobic fitness according to the needs of judo. Methods: This research was conducted in the Puncak area of West Java, which is included in the highlands. An experimental method was used in this research on twenty-four Indonesian elite judo athletes who are carrying out training camps to face the SEA Games in Vietnam in 2021. The t test using SPSS Version 24 was used for data analysis in this study. Findings and Results: The results showed that there was a significant increase in anaerobic and aerobic capacity at high altitudes in judo athletes, as seen from the SJFT. Conclusion: This study concluded that endurance training could increase the anaerobic and aerobic capacity of judo athletes in the highlands. Endurance training at high altitudes for judo athletes is highly recommended because it has been proven to have a significant effect on increasing anaerobic and aerobic capacity. We recommend that judo coaches carry out training at high altitudes because it has been proven to improve the aerobic and anaerobic abilities of judo athletes.

Abstract

Background Problems: Responsibility is an important part for students to study at university. In the learning process, students arrive late to take part in learning and do not complete assignments or even do not do them. By using Sport Education (SE) students are given assignments in a role to be responsible for the success of learning. SE has a strong connection to the Merdeka Belajar-Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) curriculum with students as the center of learning. Research Objectives: The aim of this research is to find out the responsibilities of each subscale according to the student's role after using SE and to test the effect of using SE on student responsibilities. Methods: The research method uses experimentation with a one-shot case study design. The participants involved in this research were 53 students at one of the universities in the sports studies program in Indramayu who were taken using convenience sampling techniques. The research instrument used the Contextual Self-Responsibility Questionnaire for sports program students. The data analysis technique uses statistical descriptions to determine the mean and standard deviation and tests hypotheses using the one-sample t test. Finding/Results: This research provides new findings regarding student responsibilities using SE at university level, especially in Indonesia as a support for the MBKM curriculum. Conclusion: This research concludes that there is an influence after using SE on student responsibility. Further investigation is needed regarding the administration of pretests, the existence of comparison classes, and the development of instruments to facilitate all roles according to the characteristics of roles in SE.

Abstract

Background Problems: Nutrition is an important factor in improving athlete performance, but many athletes still experience problems such as ignorance about the right portion and type of food, unbalanced energy intake, and a lack of knowledge about the nutrients the body needs. Research Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the nutritional intake of hockey student-athletes who are members of indoor hockey clubs in Tangerang City. Methods: This study used a quantitative descriptive method with a survey approach. Data were collected using a single and 24-hour reported food recall, and as many as 24 research subjects were involved in this study, there are student-athletes in the club’s indoor hockey in Tangerang City. Data analysis used a statistical approach in the form of percentages. The nutritional analysis in this study focused more on the percentages of carbohydrate, protein, fat, and caloric intake eaten by athletes within a 24-hour period. Findings and Results: This study showed the average results of the nutrition intakes include 83% for protein, 53% for carbohydrates, 72% for fat, and 52% for calories. The results show that the knowledge of indoor hockey athletes was still lacking. Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that the nutritional intake of indoor hockey athletes in Tangerang City is still far from optimal. It is vital for athletes to enhance their understanding of proper nutrition and energy needs, as this can significantly impact their fitness levels and performance outcomes. Coaches and trainers should prioritise nutrition education as part of regular training programs, collaborating with nutritionists to ensure that athletes receive the necessary guidance on their dietary habits. In the future, developing integrated nutritional programs tailored to the specific needs of indoor hockey athletes will be crucial. This research contributes to a growing understanding of the importance of nutrition in sports and underscores the need for continued efforts to address the dietary challenges faced by student athletes.
