This study aimed to compare the effects of sprint interval training (SIT) and small-sided games (SSG) on cardiopulmonary threshold responses in football players. Participants were randomly assigned to SIT, SSG, or control groups and completed an 8-week training intervention. Cardiopulmonary exercise tests were performed before and after the intervention to evaluate aerobic and anaerobic threshold-related parameters.
The purpose of this study is to investigate and compare the effects of sprint interval training and small-sided games on cardiopulmonary threshold responses in football players. Participants will undergo pre- and post-intervention cardiopulmonary exercise testing following an 8-week training program. Variables related to aerobic threshold, anaerobic threshold, and exercise performance will be evaluated between groups.
