ORTHOGONAL COMPARISONS AMONG THREE GROUPS OF COLLEGE MEN IN TREADMILL PERFORMANCE AT EIGHT AND ONE HALF MILES PER HOUR............................... 52 vi ABSTRACT It was the purpose of this study to compare the effectiveness of slow continuous running, interval training, and pace training methods on improving running performance,, Subjects for the study were 120 college freshmen enrolled in Body Mechanics and Conditioning classes at the University of South Alabama, Mobile, Alabama. This study was conducted during the fall of 1969. The subjects were tested initially for maximum performance on three tests: 1) a maximum time run on a motor driven treadmill running at a speed of ten miles per hour at zero per cent incline, 2) a maximum time run on a motor driven treadmill at eight and one half miles per hour and zero per cent incline, and 3) a mile run. The two treadmill tests were utilized to approximate a relatively good one mile run for an un­ trained college freshman, and a good two mile run for the same subject. The subjects were placed into one of three training groups according to his physical education class period. Group I, the slow continuous running group, trained at a relatively slow continuous running pace. Group I began training by running twenty minutes each session and progressed to thirty minutes each training session. Group II, the interval training group, trained by intermittently running a certain distance and resting for a scheduled period of time. Group II utilized both fast and slow interval training on alternate days. Fast interval training was confined to distances of either 60 or 220 yard dashes, and slow interval training involved running a set number of either 440 or 880 yard dashes. Group III, the pace group, trained at a predetermined steady pace for a mile run. Each subject would train at this prescribed pace for as long as he could maintain the pace or complete a mile. Each subject ran only once at each training session, and, as soon as each individual finished one mile at the set pace, he would begin training at a faster pace. The subjects trained once a day, three times a week, for eight weeks. Any subject who did not attend all twenty-four training sessions was dropped from the study. All subjects were retested on the identical three tests at the end of the training period. The mean gains between initial and final scores for each test were analyzed for each group by the difference method, a t-test for significance of the difference between correlated means. Analysis of covariance was utilized to compute any differences which existed among the groups on each test. Orthogonal comparisons were then used to calculate the nature of these differences. The main findings of this study were: 1. All three training groups significantly improved performance on all three running tests. 2. The slow continuous training group was significantly better in improving performance on the treadmill run at eight and one half miles per hour than the combined effects of the interval and pace training groups. It was concluded that within the limitations of this study: 1. Slow continuous running, interval training, and pace training methods are highly effective in improving the running performance of college freshmen. 2. Slow continuous running is better than interval and pace training methods for improving performance in the slower paced run. 3. Pace training is a very effective method of training to specifically train a runner for a particular pace and is highly effective from the standpoint of time and from a psychological point of view.

Regular physical activity has many positive health benefits, including reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases, metabolic diseases and some cancers, as well as improving the quality of life. Objectives. The aim of the study was to examine the effects of 8-week aerobic interval cycle exercise training (AIT) compared to continuous cycle exercises of moderate intensity (CME) on the aerobic and anaerobic capacity, somatic features and lipid profile. Material and methods. The research was conducted in 88 volunteers aged 19.5±0.6 years, who were randomized to three groups of organized physical activity (OPA), who exercised 3 times per week in 47 min sessions: (I) AIT (n=24) comprising 2 series of 6x10 s sprinting with maximal pedalling cadence and active rest pedalling with intensity 65%–75% HRmax, (II) CME (n=22) corresponding to 65%-75% HRmax, (III) regular collegiate physical education classes of programmed exercises (CON; n=42).

  • Pacing Is a Simple Means of Measuring Linear
    FOR-47 by Dr. Deborah B. HilI Department of Forestry acing is a simple means of measuring linear Pdistance by walking. It can be used outdoors or indoors, in the woods or over land. Pacing's measurement dates back to Roman times. The Roman pace, measured from the heel of the foot to the heel of the same foot in the next stretch, was about 58.1 inches. Today this is known as the geometric pace, which measures about 5 feet. Apace .­ To make pacing work for you, you need to know how much distance your pace covers. You can determine this by walking a pre-measured course a few times and then checking the pacing chart below. A pace equals two normal steps, beginning and ending on your dominant foot. A common use for pacing in forestry is to pace off 66 feet from a tree in order to get a measurement of tree height. This is why you detem1ine your pace on a 66­ foot course. 1. Begin by measuring a 66-foot course with a tape measure. You will use this distance to establish your pace accurately. 2. Pace off the course measured at Step # 1. Repeat two or three times and compare results. 3. Look lip the number of your paces on the chart below to determine how many Unear feet each of your paces covered. EX.: Ifit takes you 24 paces to cover 66feet, each ofyour paces is 2. 75 feet. 4. When you need to go from one point to another and do not know how far it is, pace the distance.

    TTYYPPEESS && SSTTYYLLEESS OOFF TTRRAAIINNIINNGG Love working out? Don't we all! But did you know that the way we work out can achieve different results? And by that, I don't just mean bicep curls will help grow your biceps and squats will help grow your booty, I mean different sequences, rep ranges and styles of training can be used to achieve different goals. Let's think of it like this, do you think a 100m sprinter has the same training programme in the gym as a bodybuilder? Nope! Now maybe you're thinking, wait, sprinters still train in the gym? Yes, they do! The 100m Olympic champions you see on TV will have a training programme for the gym as well, just it would look different to say a powerlifter or bodybuilder. The lists below outline the different styles and types of training concepts: www.strongher.co.uk @strongher_women Types of training: 1.Weight Training a. Strength (Weightlifting) b. Power (Powerlifting) c. Hypertrophy [Muscle building] (Bodybuilding) d. Endurance (usually used with runners, cyclists, swimmers etc.) e. Functional f.

  • Marathon Championship
    CLUB KIWIFRUIT FUND RAISING PICK As reported in Ramblings newsletter, 6th June, 1992. The annual Shallcross kiwifruit pick was once again offered to Tauranga Ramblers to give our funds a much needed boost so that we can subsidise club days, Bar-B-Q’s, Pinto, buses, newsletters and travel to major events. All in all club members receive more than their subscriptions cover, therefore we need full support from all participants for our fund-raising efforts. The club is very appreciative of the chances to earn this money and a special thanks go to Bill and Marge Shallcross for this fruit picking opportunity. It certainly beats selling raffle tickets and gives us the chance to do something other than one’s usual job or studies. It is quite an education especially the way different people see the hairy berries – their shapes and sizes I’ll leave to your imagination. Colin Clifton commented that it was a change from working alone. Teresa Coston was certainly the noisiest and Kristin McLoughlin one of the quietest, but it was good to see everyone turn out. Some brought their spouses, or sons and daughters. Robyn Bint did a great job removing all the kiwifruit stalks. Marge did a great job of keeping the team fed, while Nigel Hines had done an absolutely fantastic job chasing along all members he could find. Over the two days we picked 162 bins compared to 166 last year. Unfortunately we couldn’t quite finish but Ramblers received $1400.00 for the two day’s work. Once again special thanks to Bill, Marge, Debbie, Russell, Rob Shallcross and his in-laws and to Nigel and Sheryl Hines for their organisation.

In school, he ran and boxed, but was most interested in rugby football. Because of the Great Depression of the 1920’s, Lydiard dropped out of school at 16 to work in a shoe factoryc. Lydiard figured he was pretty fit until Jack Dolan, president of the Lynndale Athletic Club in Auckland and an old man compared to Lydiard, took him on a five-mile training jog. Lydiard was completely exhausted and was forced to rethink his concept of fitness. He wondered what he would feel like at 47, if at 27 he was exhausted by a five-mile run. Lydiard began training according to the methods of the time, but this only confused him further. At the club library he found a book by F.W. Webster called “The Science of Athletics.” But Lydiard soon decided that the schedules offered by Webster were being too easy on him, so he began experimenting to find out how fit he could get.

  • Effects of 8-Week Training on Aerobic Capacity and Swimming Per- Formance of Boys Aged 12 Years
    Original Paper. Biomedical Human Kinetics, 3, 49 – 52, 2011 DOI: 10.2478/v10101-011-0011-8 Effects of 8-week training on aerobic capacity and swimming per- formance of boys aged 12 years Ryszard Zarzeczny 1, Mariusz Kuberski 1, Agnieszka Deska 1, Dorota Zarzeczna 1, Katarzyna Rydz 1, Anna Lewandowska 2, Tomasz Bałchanowski 3, Janusz Bosiacki 3 1 Institute of Physical Culture and Tourism, Jan Długosz University, Częstochowa; 2 Primary School No. 36, Częstochowa; 3 Primary School No. 48, Częstochowa, Poland Summary Study aim: To assess the effects of 8-week endurance training in swimming on work capacity of boys aged 12 years. Material and methods: The following groups of schoolboys aged 12 years were studied: untrained control (UC; n = 14) and those training swimming for two years. The latter ones were subjected to 8-week training in classical style (CS; n = 10) or free style (FS; n = 13). In all boys maximal oxygen uptake (‡O2max) was determined, and the CS and FS groups were subjected to 6 tests: swimming at 50 and 400 m distances (time recorded) and to 12-min swimming (distance recorded), all by free and classical styles pre- and post-training. From swimming times at 50 and 400 m distances the so-called critical swimming speed (CSS) was computed: CSS = (400 – 50) / (t400 – t50). Results: No training-induced improvement in ‡O2max was noted in any group. Yet, boys subjected to classical style training significantly (p<0.05) improved their free-style swimming velocity at CSS and at the 400-m distance by about 6%, and their heart rate following the 12-min test in classical style decreased by nearly 16% (p<0.001) com- pared with the pre-training values.
