Abstract

            


The purpose of this research was to study the effects of napping on lactate recovery. Subjects were 20 male football players aged 14 – 16 years old of Suankularb Wittayalai (Jiraprawat) Nakhon Sawan school, Nakhon Sawan province. The subjects were tested Bruce Test protocol. In testing, the subjects must be tested with maximum effort until exhaustion and heart rate of not less than 85% of maximum heart rate (MHR). Immediately testing be completed, blood test at fingertip for measure lactate by Lactate plus testing. They were divided into 2 groups with match pair design by maximum lactate (Max lactate) and Maximal oxygen consumption (VO2 max) no significant. The napping group (n = 10) recovery by took a nap for 30 minutes while the no-napping group (n = 10) recovery by took a sit for 30 minutes.  Variables studied was Lactate recovery by blood test after recovery 30 minutes. Data was analyzed by mean, standard deviation and ANOVA repeated analysis. Significant level was set at .05.


          Findings was the napping group (3.06 mmol-1 ±.613) have lactate recovery faster than the no-napping group (4.02 mmol-1  ±.421) Significant difference at .05. The result showed napping effected on lactate recovery by causing the blood lactate decrease faster. This is the key factors in recovery from fatigue because when the athletes have the performance about faster recovery upon to the athletes have be ready faster for the next competition and affected for the performance about capacity fitness of the athletes.
