Abstract

Background and Aims: Strengthening and developing physical fitness is an important foundation and is extremely necessary for all types of athletes. In addition to increasing the physical fitness level of athletes, It also has a positive effect on movement and the practice of sports skills effectively. Thus, the purposes of this research were 1) to compare the effects of resistance circuit training in hypoxic and normoxic conditions on aerobic performance. 2) to compare the effects of resistance circuit training in hypoxic conditions on aerobic performance before the training phase, after 4 weeks of the training phase, and after 8 weeks of the training phase, and 3) to compare the effects of resistance circuit training in normoxic conditions on aerobic performance before the training, after 4 weeks of the training phase, and after 8 weeks of the training phase.

Methodology: The samples were male intermittent sport athletes (including futsal, basketball, and handball athletes), aged 18 - 22 years using multistage sampling to obtain a sample size of 24 people. Participants were divided into two groups: experimental group 1 (n = 12) and experimental group 2 (n = 12). Both groups followed a specific program of 8 weeks and 3 days per week. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze data including the mean, and standard deviation. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used in the study. The statistical significance level was set at.05.

Results:  (1) the aerobic performance of a group with the resistance circuit training with hypoxic conditions and a group with the resistance circuit training with normoxic conditions were different with no statistical significance, (2) a group with the resistance circuit training with hypoxic conditions had the highest ability to bring oxygen into the body starting from before the training phase, after 4 weeks of a training phase and after 8 weeks of training phase were statistically significant different while the anaerobic threshold of before the training phase, and after 4 weeks of training phase was statistically significantly different with after 8 weeks of the training phase, and (3) a group with the resistance circuit training with normoxic conditions the highest ability to bring oxygen into the body and the anaerobic threshold starting from before the training phase and after 4 weeks of training phase were statistically significantly different with after 8 weeks of the training phase.

Conclusion: resistance circuit training with hypoxic and normoxic conditions can equally improve aerobic performance.
