Aerobic capacity is the capacity of large skeletal muscle
groups to adapt to work by using energy obtained as
a result of aerobic metabolism. VO2max is a good
indicator of aerobic capacity and is considered to be an
indicator of the physiological integration of pulmonary,
cardiovascular and neuromuscular functions.
Anaerobic capacity is the ability of the muscles to
adapt to workouts in the form of very short duration,
maximal and supramaximal physical activities. The aim
of this study is to investigate the effects of aerobic and
anaerobic training methods on aerobic and anaerobic
capacity. 8 female (age; 18.12 ± 0.35 years, weight 46.6
± 7.39 kg; height 162.7 ± 6.75 cm; BMI; 17.72 ± 2.60
kg/m2, PBF; 16.01 ± 6.15%) and 8 male (age; 18.50
± 1.19 years, weight 61.18 ± 5.43 kg; height 174.0
± 4.00 cm; BMI; 20.16 ± 1.43 kg/m2; PBF; 12.20 ±
3.96%) participated in this study. The volunteers were
randomly divided into aerobic (4 female, 4 male)
and anaerobic (4 female, 4 male) groups. Volunteers
participated in a total of 24 training seasons, 3 days per
week over 8 weeks. The training programs Involved
running on a treadmill in the range of 60-70% maxHR
for 1 hour on each training day for the aerobic group.
The anaerobic training program included running in
the range of maxHR 80-90% on the treadmill (2*100,
2*200, 2*300, 1*400, 2*300, 2*200, 2*100 sprints)
for 1 hour per season. In order to determine the aerobic
performance of the volunteers, a bicycle ergometer
(Monark LC6 novo, Varberg, Sweden) was used with a
portable gas analyzer (Cosmed K5, Italy).
In order to determine the anaerobic performance, a
bicycle ergometer (Monark 874 E, Varberg, Sweden),
which was connected to a computer modified for the
Wingate Anerobic Power Test (WAnT) and compatible
with an appropriate piece of software, was used.
The study was planned in accordance with a pre-test
and post-test model. For statistical evaluation of the
data obtained, descriptive statistical methods such
as frequency (f), arithmetic mean (X), and standard
deviation (SD) were used. A paired-samples t-test was
used for the evaluation of the data obtained from pretest and post-test measurements. Independent samples
t-test was used for the determination of differences
between the sexes. The results were evaluated at
the 0.05 significance level. Based on the findings,
anaerobic training was observed to cause an increase
in all components of anaerobic capacity. Significant
differences were found in the anaerobic capacity
components. It was found that anaerobic training
caused a high level of difference in terms of aerobic
capacity values, and thus increased aerobic capacity. It
was observed that aerobic training had a positive effect
on anaerobic capacity, anaerobic power and the fatigue
index. Although aerobic training results in an increase
in aerobic capacity of approximately 4%, this increase
was not significant.
