An interventional study of Warm Up Exercises and Endurance Based Exercises in Cardiorespiratory Fitness, sponsored by Riphah International University. Status unknown at 1 site in Pakistan. Open to male participants aged 16 Years to 25 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-04-03.
Sponsored by Riphah International University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
The football players require a number attributes for excellent performance. These attributes include cardiovascular fitness, muscle strength, muscular Endurance, flexibility, agility, Coordination, skill and tactical knowledge. In young male football players, the most important attributes are high levels of skill in passing, shooting, dribbling, and heading. A long-term commitment to endurance training is necessary to reach and maintain a player full physical potential. There are two primary objectives of the endurance program are to prevent injury and enhance the abilities to play the game.

In sport-specific endurance running on cardiorespiratory fitness endurance, 26 male football players with age group of 16-25 are selected. The participants have never undergone surgery or accident and do not possess any lethal disease. The participants will be allocated into control group with 13 participants and experimental group with 13 participants respectively. The sample will be taken in study setting of Pakistan Sports Board. Control group will follow their daily warm up activities. Interventional group will follow the endurance-based running protocol. Sport-specific endurance-running (duration [in minutes], total distance [in meters], mean speed [in meters per minute], high-speed running >15 km·h-1, and relative high-speed running [>75% and >85% of maximal velocity]) will be given to the experimental group. Athletes will run in excess of 15 km of total distance (TD) and 4 km of high-speed (>15 km·h-1) distance per session 3 to 4 running-based endurance sessions per week for 6 weeks.

Exclusion Criteria:
Effect of warm up activities daily on cardiorespiratory fitness of Male Football Players
Other: Warm Up Exercises
Effect of sports-specific endurance based exercises on cardiorespiratory fitness of Male Football Players
Other: Endurance Based Exercises
The daily warm up exercises for male football players include full body stretch, high knees, lunges, squat and burpees.
Sport-specific endurance-running (duration \[in minutes\], total distance \[in meters\], mean speed \[in meters per minute\], high-speed running \>15 km·h-1, and relative high-speed running \[\>75% and \>85% of maximal velocity\]) will be given to the experimental group. Athletes will run in excess of 15 km of total distance (TD) and 4 km of high-speed (\>15 km·h-1) distance per session 3 to 4 running-based endurance sessions per week for 6 weeks.
Cooper Test
Participants started running on athletics track. The subjects did their best to run many laps around running track for 12 minutes. When 12 minutes over the subjects stopped running and they stood on their spot. Then, the amount of distance covered by subjects within twelve minutes and the exercise heart rate (EHR) of each subject were measured in meter and beat per minute. In addition, after getting plenty of resting time, resting heart rate (RHR) of the subjects was measured in best minute
Time frame: 6 week
Shuttle Run
For assessment of speed and agility, the shuttle run test (10 × 5m) was applied. Shuttle runs are a popular training technique for sports which involve short bursts of speed. They help develop your acceleration, speed and your anaerobic fitness. In shuttle run, the participant run to the 10m mark first, touching the floor and running back to the start line. Then run to the 20m line and back. Finally run to the 30m line and back. Start the routine again and repeat four times
Time frame: 6 week
Indirect VO2 Calculation
The VO2 maximum of male football players is calculated using formula
