Abstract
Background and Study Aim. Dependent on the character and intensity, sports training results in specific adaptive changes in the organism that can occur at different pace. In order to study the post-training adaptation of the organism, a group of martial arts athletes and a group of untrained students were tested. The aim of the study was morphofunctional characteristic of the person practicing martial arts and untrained youths.
Material and Methods. 8 Brazilian jiu jitsu athletes, 4 taekwondo athletes (SG) and 10 students (CG) performed an anaerobic Wingate test (WT) and then a cycle ergometer aerobic test (ET) during which the circulatory and pulmonary variables were recorded.
Results. The study has shown that the SG group in comparison to the CG group achieved higher anaerobic work (Wt) and average power during WT, whereas during ET they achieved higher values of power at anaerobic threshold (APAT), higher values of aerobic power at maximal load (APML), with a simultaneous higher energy expenditure (EE) and significantly higher values of VO2max, maximum pulmonary ventilation
(VE) and oxygen debt (OD), without the occurrence of other significant changes in the pulmonary and circulatory systems.
Conclusions. The obtained results suggest that the applied training loads lead to gradual adaptive changes in the organism that started with the increase of aerobic and anaerobic power, and with initial increase in exercise metabolism.
Key words: Brazilian jiu jitsu ? taekwondo ? aerobic power ? anaerobic power ? training adaptation
