A Comparison between combined loaded jump squat training with short interval training and intermediate interval training on physiological performance in football player between the age of 16-18 years old
Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of combined loaded jump squat training with short interval training and combined loaded jump squat training with intermediate interval training on physiological performance in football player. Sixteen male football players of Debsirin school (age 1618 years) were purposively selected for this study. Subjects were divided into two groups, each group consisted of eight football players. The 1st experimental group performed combined loaded jump squat with short interval training (LS) and the 2nd experiment group did combined loaded jump squat with intermediate interval training (LI). Both groups trained two days per week (Tuesday and Friday) for a period of six weeks. The data of aerobic performance, anaerobic power, anaerobic capacity, fatigue index, leg power endurance and agility were taken before and after the experiment. The obtained data were analyzed in term of means and standard deviations, Independent t-test and Paired t-test were also employed for statistical significant at the .05 level. After six weeks of training, the results were as followed: 1. Anaerobic power, legs power endurance and agility in both groups were significantly better than before training but no significant difference in aerobic performance and fatigue index after six week of training in both groups at the .05 level. While anaerobic capacity in LI group only was significantly better than before training at the .05 level. 2. Agility in LI group was significantly better than LS group at the .05 level. While aerobic performance, anaerobic power, anaerobic capacity, fatigue index and legs power endurance in both groups were not significant difference at the .05 level. In conclusion, both training programs can improve in agility, leg power endurance and anaerobic power but no effect on aerobic performance and fatigue index. As well as combined loaded jump squat training with intermediate interval training can improve in agility better than combined loaded jump squat training with short interval training.
