Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find out the efficiency of high intensity interval training on anaerobic capacity and fatigue index of male handball players. To achieve the purpose thirty (30) male handball players were selected from Department of Physical Education and Sports Sciences, Annamalai University, Chidambaram, Tamilnadu, India. These subjects were tested on anaerobic capacity and fatigue index before and after eight weeks of high intensity interval training (HIIT). The mean maximal aerobic speed 4.21 m/s was used as a criterion velocity to set running paces for high-intensity interval training. Statistical technique used in the present study was ANCOVA for anaerobic capacity and fatigue index. The result of the study revealed that eight weeks of high intensity interval training resulted in 28.58% in anaerobic capacity (F(1,27) =28.54, p < 0.05) and fatigue index (F(1,27) =14.11, p < 0.05). It is concluded that high intensity interval training for eight weeks resulted in improvement of anaerobic capacity and fatigue index of male handball players.
