Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study was to clarify development of aerobic work capacities on Yo-Yo intermittent recovery test in Japanese male soccer players. Running distance of Yo-Yo intermittent recovery test level 1 and level2 (Yo-Yo IR1 and Yo-Yo IR2) were significantly correlated to the running distance of 12 min running test, respectively. And also, running distance of Yo-Yo IR1 and Yo-Yo IR2 was obtained significantly development from 14 to 15 years old. Therefore, intermittent endurance capacity was developed during adolescence in male soccer players. Moreover, Yo-Yo IR2 was significantly correlated to the total distance covered during soccer match in side players.
