Influence of time of rest on the power decrease during exercising on the inclined plane.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the influence of the time of rest on the change of maximal and average power as a function of time during training on an inclined plane. The values of power, developed during 7 series of 10 bounces with a 0.5 and 1 minute break, were analyzed. The research was conducted on 10 female students from the second year of master studies with a major of physical education. Taking into account the results obtained, which were compared to data from other sources, it is possible to conclude that the value of maximal power for the whole group examined during the training with a 0.5 minute break decreased by 22%, and for the training with a 1 minute break by 12%. One can assume that the training with a 0.5 minute break was more tiring, and for that reason students were not able to regenerate fully so as to bounce in the subsequent series. That is why one should say that the second method of training is more efficient for the evaluation of the maximal power of the contestant.
