Introduction: The continuous improvement of the level of modern sports competition compels continuous reform and constant updates on sports training theory; sports training research is migrating from continuous low-intensity to high-intensity interval, and many studies have shown that high-intensity interval training has a good effect on athletes. Objective: Investigate the effect of different recovery modalities during high-intensity interval training on the athletic performance of young male runners. Methods: Using body morphological index measurement, high-intensity intermittent exhaustion test, and statistical analysis, forty young male long-distance runners from sports schools were randomly divided into active recovery group (AR, n=20) and passive recovery group (PR, n=20), maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) and maximal aerobic speed (MAV) were measured by incremental load exercise test, and interval exercise capacity and time to exhaustion (ET) were recorded. Results: Compared with pre-training, MAV and ET in both groups increased significantly after training (P<0.05); there was no significant difference in MAV on RA group after training (P>0.05). Conclusion: High-intensity interval training with active recovery can significantly improve athletic ability and performance in young male runners in the long term. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
