Changes in indicators of aerobic capacity during the league break in amateur basketball players
Summary:
In the research of this Master’s thesis we investigate changes in the aerobic capacity of amateur basketball players during a championship break. A break of the championship can take place during the holiday season and after the end of the championship. Usually, on an amateur level a break means reduction or total cessation of training. 15 amateur basketball players (n = 15, aged 23.2 ± 5.7 years, height 188.78 ± 7.35 cm and WEIGHT 86.73 ± 11.36 kg), starters and alternates, performed a maximum fatigue test twice, before the cessation of training (T1) and after 14 days of detraining (T2). The cessation of training resulted in a decrease of aerobic capacity to all athletes. O gain at WEIGHT of 1.77% and a decrease in all other indicators were found. Specifically, in VO2max(l/min) there was a decrease of 6.04%, in VO2max(lm/kg/min) 7.78%, in AT 9.02%, in VE / VCO2 3.24%, in VO2 / t-slope 14.03% and in AT TIME 10.66%. The analysis of the results based on the role of the players showed a statistically significant increase in WEIGHT of 1.64% and a decrease in AT 9.87%, in VE / VCO2 12.14%, in AT TIME 17,59% and in EXERCISE TIME 12.06% for the alternate group. A statistically significant increase in WEIGT of 1.93% and a decrease in VO2max(l/min) and VO2max(ml/kg/min) of 10.89% and 12.82% respectively was found for the starter group. The 14-day period of detraining affects the aerobic capacity of amateur basketball players and therefore their performance. A decreased performance during the championship can affect the whole team and the coach.
