Effect of interval training in the competitive period on anaerobic capacity in judo athletes
Journal Title: Journal of Combat Sports and Martial Arts - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
[b]Background. [/b]The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of interval training on cycle ergometer on relative values of mechanical work (J/kg), peak power (W/kg) and time of work (s) at the level of 97.5% of peak power during 6 repetitions of exercise on cycle ergometer.[b]Material and methods. [/b]Ten judo athletes randomly divided into two groups performed 5-week training programs. Before each judo training session, the experimental group (n=5) performed an additional training session on cycle ergometer in the form of six 10-second maximum efforts divided with periods of passive rest (45s each). The control group (n=5) performed a standard judo training typical of the competitive period.[b]Results. [/b]Comparison of the results obtained for the experimental and control groups at the end of the competitive period demonstrated that mean mechanical work (J/kg), peak power (W/kg) and time of work (s) at the level of 97.5% of peak power in each of six test efforts in the group that performed additional exercise on cycle ergometer were significantly higher than in the control group that participated in a standard judo training program. [b]Conclusions.[/b] Regular interval training sessions on cycle ergometer during the competitive period in judo is effective in maintaining high level of anaerobic capacity over a longer period of time.
