“…This may result from the fact that players heart rate during a match over half time is in the aerobic zone: 80-85% (Cervar, 1998;Loftin et al, 1996). However since players did not reach their expected HRmax the protocol suggested by Hamlin et al (2012) might be better for testing handball players.…”

The purpose of the present study was to examine the anthropometric parameters and cardiopulmonary functions of young handball players in different playing positions. 15 male handball players from first division (mean age: 16.06±0.63 yrs) participated in our research who were divided by their playing positions. First anthropometric parameters, body composition and pulmonary functions in rest were measured. Then physiological changes of the players were tested with Bruce protocol. We found that wings differed the most in morphological characteristics from other players. We did not find significant differences in pulmonary functions among positions. The highest values of Tidal volume in the vita maxima test were found in pivots (2.82±0.15 l) which is significantly higher than Tidal volume of goalkeepers (p=0.006). The highest mean value of maximal oxygen uptake was recorded (73.93±9.41 ml/kg/min) in wings. Altogether in our study important differences were seen in physique and in performance also among young handball players.

“…The use of this protocol allows direct determining of VO 2 max, VCO 2 , the value of VT1 and VT2 thresholds, heart rate, as well as the relations between these parameters of exercise capacity (Hamlin et al, 2012).…”

The study purpose is to determine if aerobic training affects aerobic capacity, as well as anaerobic threshold, minute ventilation (VE), ratio of expired carbon dioxide to oxygen utilization (VCO 2 , VO 2 ). The research methods used were: bibliographical study, observation, Bruce protocol with the computerized assessment of expired gases. Three recreational athletes were tested for basal VO 2 max and data were used to determine their first (VT1) and second (VT 2 ) ventilatory thresholds, VE (L/min), VCO 2 /VO 2 (%). The intervention consisted in a 2-month period of aerobic training focused on building volume at 65% VO 2 . Exercise volume was controlled across the 2-month period by varying duration and frequency. Intensity during exercise was controlled by monitoring the subjects' heart rate (HR) to stay within targeted HR zones. In the first 4 weeks, it was used a volume of around 300km (65% VO 2 max), and for the second 4 weeks, the volume increased to around 380km (65% VO 2 max). After two months of training VO 2 max, VT1 and VT2, we found significant improvements in both ventilatory thresholds, and also in VE, VCO 2 and VO 2 . VO 2 max did not improve significantly, but there were improvements in all three subjects in their VT1, VT2, VCO 2 /VO 2 and VE. When exercise volume is controlled and individualized based on VT, adaptation to training improves both VT1 and VT2, the subject performing no anaerobic activity over a period of 2 months.

“…Para determinar el v O 2 máx. se debió alcanzar un índice de intercambio respiratorio (IR) ≥ 1,11 8,9 , una FC ≤ 10 p·min -1 o un ≤ 5% respecto a la máxima estimada según la edad (220-edad) 10 . Al finalizar el test se les preguntó a los estudiantes la percepción subjetiva del esfuerzo (PSE).…”
