ABSTRACT

Recent developments in the physical fitness and training assessments of athletes are premised on the reality that the athlete is confronted with competition-like criteria. Considering physical fitness, it is necessary, because requirements are varied, to examine thoroughly the abilities that have an effect on the development of sports. This paper will aim to describe the physical and physiological comparison of athletes in aerobic and anaerobic evaluation specific to the sports consisting of the individual, team, and combat personalities. The study was carried out with a total of 120 (n=120) players comprised of 40 (n=40) players in each category of individual, team, and combat sports. The recorded data is statistically analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) with a p-value less than 0.05 significant level. Results that are found to be significant are further processed using the Tuckey HSD post hoc test to find the significant difference among the groups. The obtained results show that there is a significant difference between the groups with regards to the VO2 max and lactate threshold.

Keywords: Lactate threshold, VO2 max, Recovery Heart Rate, aerobics, physiological profile.
