Incidencia de un programa de entrenamiento intermitente en el mejoramiento del rendimiento físico de los árbitros de fútbol profesional de Atlántico, Bolívar y Magdalena.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of intermittent training program in improving physical performance of professional football referees del Atlantico, Bolivar and Magdalena. The population consisted of 19 referees, male and female gender. The average age was 28.1 years, height 173 cm, body mass index of 9.2 kg / m2. The variables body mass, height, speed endurance, speed and aerobic power were measured in order to determine the physical performance of professional referees. The new battery of physical tests of FIFA, which determines evaluate the referee in the first instance in their anaerobic capacity to run sprints (6 x 40 m) was used, and in turn measure to evaluate variables related to physical fitness aerobic power capacity in the second test. In addition to this specific maximal aerobic power through the test of Leger it was estimated. Regarding body composition data, the results indicated that the fat percentage was 9%, with an average somatotype 2,4 - 2.7 to 3.1, recording a classification central rate since no component differs more half unit. Related to physical fitness results they showed that professional football referees del Atlantico, Bolivar and Magdalena covered, on average, 5.2 seconds anaerobic test, while in the second, all comfortably covered the distance of 4000 meters. The maximum aerobic power referees recorded an average of 39.9, indicating a bad VO2 Max. The greatest accumulation of fat in referees can be a limiting physical performance during the match, it is also a limiting factor in the performance of the low level of VO2max.
