Summary: | 碩士 === 國立體育大學 === 競技與教練科學研究所 === 102 === Purpose: the purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of altitude training on the performances of middle-distance and long-distance runners. Methods: thirteen collegiate level elite distance runners (age: 20.5±1.4 years old, height: 175±4.5cm, weight: 59.8±3.4kg) were recruited to participate this study. Eight weeks training program including four week sea level pre-altitude session and four week real altitude training(RAT), all participants had been evaluate lab VO2max test and filed 12 minute run test before(T-1) and after(T-2) RAT. Results: filed 12 minute run performance had significant improved after RAT (3758.3±159.6 vs. 3831.7±131.8meters, p<.05), even the split distance of third(+32meters) and sixth(+56.7meters) minutes improved significantly. In the lab test, Anaerobic threshold (4.0±0.8 vs. 4.3±0.9 L/min, p>.05 ) and heart rate did not shown difference between T-1 and T-2, but the ventilation rate(VE) had significant improved after RAT(115.8±2.0 vs. 121.2±2.8l/min, p<.05). Conclusions: short-term altitude training program had positive effects on the lab and filed performances of distance runners.
