Abstract
Then the purposes of this study were to compare and correlate the aerobic threshold (THaer) and anaerobic threshold (THanaer) measured during a new single judo specific incremental test and Treadmill Test for aerobic demand evaluation. Eight well-trained male competitive judo players (24.3±7.9 years; height of 169.3±6.7cm; fat mass of 12.7±3.9%) performed a maximal incremental specific test for judo mimicking the UchiKomi drills and on treadmill in different days. There was difference between specific and general THaer (P=0.0006) as well as weak correlation for THaer (r=0.32; R2=0.1; P=0.2) and THanaer (rs=-0.31; R2=0.1; P=0.12). When correlation was applied with normalized data (percentage of peak load) we observed moderate correlation for THaer (r=0.76; R2=0.58; P=0.027), but the same was not observed for THanaer. We conclude that there is a need of THaer and THanaer evaluation through a specific test for Judo.
