Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of concurrent strength and energy system development (ESD) training on strength, aerobic capacities and changes of lean muscle mass percentage in different recovery intervals among college basketball players. Total of 23 university college basketball players (Age = 20.39 ± 1.31 years; height = 175.38 ± 6.73 cm; weight = 69.06 ± 8.24 kg; frequency of training basketball = 2 days) took part in this study and were divided into immediate concurrent training group (ICTG, n = 11) and separate sessions concurrent training group (SCTG, n = 12) and were randomly assigned by using systematic counter balancing method which based on participants’ pre-test result of 5RM strength tests and Yo-Yo intermittent endurance test. ICTG went through concurrent strength and ESD training for 6 weeks while the SCTG went through concurrent strength and ESD training as well but with a 6-hour recovery interval. Subjects’ strength was tested through 5RM bench and squat tests, aerobic capacity was through Yo-Yo intermittent endurance test, and body composition was through Inbody-570, all tests were tested during pre-test and post-tests. In results, both of the groups showed improvement by comparing pre-test and post-test mean scores within the group in all tests that performed except skeletal muscle mass and body fat percentage. Meanwhile, there were no significant differences (p>0.05) on post-tests between both ICTG and SCTG groups. This showed that the concurrent strength and ESD training showed improvement on college basketball players in strength and aerobic development. However, it doesn’t seem to have changes in participants body composition, skeletal muscle mass and body fat percentage
