Abstract
Background and Study Aim. The body?s ability to undertake physical effort is highly variable and depends on many factors. Therefore, the aim of present stady was knowledge about factors what determine the development of anaerobic power (AnP) and aerobic power (AP) in people practicing martial arts and in untrained persons.
Material and Methods. At the commencement of this study a dietary composition of 8 Brazilian jiu jitsu athletes, 4 taekwondo athletes (SG) and 10 students (CG) was recorded. Then both groups performed Wingate test (WT) to determine AnP and later a cycle ergometer test (ET) was performed during which AP, pulmonary and circulatory variables were recorded. Afterwards a correlation between AP and AnP indicators was performed. Then AP and AnP indicators were also correlated with the oxygen consumption (VO2), oxygen debt (OD), the value of energy expenditure (EE), the ingredients of the diet (UD) and somatic indicators (SP) separately in each group.
Result. The AP reached at anaerobic threshold (APAT) and aerobic power at maximal load (APML) correlated with numerous indicators of AnP indicators in the SG group, whereas in the CG group the correlations were few and concerned APML and AnP variables such as total work (Wt) and mean power (Pmean). Additionally AP and AnP showed more frequently significant correlation with VO2, OD, EE, UD and SP in the SG group than in CG group.
Conclusion. Studies have shown that training in martial arts not only causes specific adaptation changes in the body but also improves the functional interdependence.
