Pengaruh Latihan High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) terhadap Peningkatan Daya Tahan Kardiovaskular (VO2Max) Atlet Bola Basket Mahasiswa Ilmu Keolahragaan

Researchers split 20 college basketball players into two groups: one did sprint-interval HIIT three times a week for five weeks at 80-90% intensity, while the other did no extra training, with VO2Max measured by the beep test before and after. The HIIT group showed significantly greater improvement in VO2Max than the control group, though the groups also differed significantly at baseline.
Takeaway: Add two to three short sprint-interval sessions per week for about five weeks to boost your VO2Max for court sports.

This study

Aims: to determine whether High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) has a significant effect on improving cardiovascular endurance (VO2Max) in basketball athletes among Sports Science students. The

Method: used was a quantitative approach with a Pretest-Posttest Only Control Group

Design: , involving 20 samples selected from a population of 30 using the Simple Random Sampling technique, in which the experimental group was given HIIT treatment in the form of sprint interval training for 5 weeks (3 times per week, 80–90% intensity), while the control group received no treatment, and VO2Max was measured using the Multistage Fitness Test (Bleep Test), which was analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, Levene's homogeneity test, and the independent t-test. The

Results: showed

Significance: values of (1) 0.002 in the pretest and (2) 0.000 in the posttest (both < 0.05), indicating a significant difference between the experimental and control groups. It can therefore be concluded that HIIT training has a significant effect on improving cardiovascular endurance (VO2Max) in basketball athletes among Sports Science students, with the experimental group showing a greater improvement than the control group.
