The effect of physical performance training on yo-yo intermediate level 1 test parameters in young soccer players
Özet
This research was conducted to determine the effect of physical performance training on Yo
Yo intermediate level 1 test parameters in young soccer players. The research was conducted
according to the experimental research model. The research was conducted in the U-14 elite
development league of a football team that competed in the super league, age:14, height:
160.11 ± 7.68; weight: 47.79 ± 5.55, 18 players participated voluntarily. Yo-Yo intermediate
level 1 test was applied to the football players on the grass football field and maximal heart
rate was measured with a polar watch. Tests and measurements were performed two weeks
before the start of the league, and the endurance and maximal heart rate of football players’
values were determined. After the first test, 12 weeks of physical performance pieces of
training were performed and the same tests and measurements were performed again. In order
to determine the difference between pre and post-test measurements, Paried Sample t-test was
performed in SPSS 21 programme. According to the findings obtained as a result of the
analysis; it was found that there was a statistically significant difference between Yo-Yo
intermediate level 1 test performed before the season and Yo-Yo intermediate level 1 test
after the physical training program. (p <.05). As a result; It can be said that physical
performance training performed 12 weeks had a positive effect on endurance performance and
maximal heart rate in young players. It is recommended that the research is applied to
components of other performance such as speed and force.
