AbstractObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the effect of fartlek training combined with different running based high intensity interval training on anaerobic endurance of men soccer players.MethodsThe experimental study enrolled 60 men soccer players who taking part in the inter collegiate level football tournament from University, Calicut Kerala. The age ranged between eighteen to twentyone years, which were selected to carry out the research. The subjects who met the inclusion criteria were selected using random sampling and divided into three intervention groups and a control group. The test items used to collect the anaerobic endurance was tested by 300 yards shuttle run test and performance recorded in seconds. The 12 weeks of stipulated training was provided to the participants for the period of 60minute sessions for the three alternative days in a week.Statistical ProcedureTo process the results of the study, analysis of the data was done with the IBM SPSS Statistics 22 software. The statistics obtained were provided by way analysis of co variance. The level of confidence was fixed at 95% and values below p<0.05 were considered significant. Results: The one-way analysis of co variance showed a significant (p<0.05) improvement in anaerobic endurance over the 12 weeks of stipulated training.ConclusionThe results indicate considerable significant improvement on anaerobic endurance was observed. The findings indicate that the selected training regimes led to significant improvement on anaerobic endurance.
