Validity of a squash-specific fitness test.
PURPOSE This study examined the validity of a squash-specific test designed to assess endurance capability and aerobic power. METHODS Eight squash players and eight runners performed, in a counterbalanced order, incremental treadmill (TT) and squash-specific (ST) tests to volitional exhaustion. Breath-by-breath oxygen uptake was determined by a portable analyzer and heart rate was assessed te...
متن کاملSports-specific fitness testing in squash.
Maximum oxygen uptake and the running speed at the anaerobic threshold were determined during treadmill running. Performance in these laboratory tests and performance on a squash-specific field test were compared and examined with respect to subjective ratings of squash fitness. The field test was performed in a squash court. Six light bulbs were connected to a programming device causing indivi...
متن کاملReproducibility of physiological and performance measures from a squash-specific fitness test.
PURPOSE We examined the reproducibility of performance and physiological responses on a squash-specific incremental test. METHODS Eight trained squash players habituated to procedures with two prior visits performed an incremental squash test to volitional exhaustion on two occasions 7 days apart. Breath-by-breath oxygen uptake (Vo2) and heart rate were determined continuously using a portabl...
متن کاملValidity of a squash-specific test of change-of-direction speed.
PURPOSE We examined the validity and reproducibility of a squash-specific test designed to assess change-of-direction speed. METHODS 10 male squash and 10 male association-football and rugby-union players completed the Illinois agility run (IAR) and a squash change-of-direction-speed test (SCODS) on separate days. Tests were repeated after 24 h to assess reproducibility. The best time from th...
متن کاملSpecific incremental test in elite squash players.
OBJECTIVES To compare cardiorespiratory responses between incremental treadmill (non-specific) and field (sport specific) tests in elite squash players. METHODS Seven elite players (ranked 1 to 25 in their national federation including the World number 1) randomly performed an incremental treadmill test (TT) and a squash specific graded test (ST) to exhaustion. The ST consisted of repeated di...
