Effect of Aerobic Training Detraining and Retraining on Cardio Respiratory Endurance

Abstract :

The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of aerobic training detraining and retraining on cardio respiratory endurance. Thirty male bachelor degree students undergoing various courses at Vivekananda Arts & Science College, Villupuram were randomly assigned into experimental and control) groups consisting of 15 subjects each. The experimental group underwent 12 weeks aerobic training followed by 40 days detraining and there after the four weeks of retraining programme. Cardio respiratory endurance was measured at the base line and immediately after the training and also during the detraining and after the retraining period. The data on post experimentation and detraining period (four cessations) and after retraining were analysed by two way (2x 7) factorial ANOVA with last factor repeated measures. Although aerobic training improved cardio respiratory endurance the training induced gain had been decreased after forty days of detraining and after retraining period not reached the 12 weeks of aerobic training level.
