Abstract

There is large population interested in football and have been playing since years. This is a multifaceted sport that not only requires strength and endurance but also requires well developed physic that are important co-determinants of football performance. Football (soccer) player have to maintain a high level of intensity throughout the whole game and so the need to evaluate the association of inspiratory muscle strength with the sports performance in football players by using Inspiratory muscle training device and YO-YO Intermittent Recovery Test Level 1.Analytical study was carried on total of 126 football players with mean age 20.58±2.57 and year of experience with mean 6.19±3.34 were evaluated by using Inspiratory muscle training device and inspiratory muscle strength was checked and then the players completed YO-YO intermittent recovery test level 1 and VO2max was calculated. Spearman coefficient correlation(r) was used to assess the correlation and on statistical analysis spearman coefficient between inspiratory muscle strength and predicted VO2max is 0.24.VO2 max peak was more sensitive to decreasing orifice diameter in trained endurance football players than untrained individual. There is increase in circulatory capacity with endurance training which is increased by IMT, whole body aerobic capacity increases thus increase in VO2 max. This study concluded that there is weak correlation between inspiratory muscle strength and VO2max.

Keywords: Fitness, Yo-Yo intermittent recovery test, VO2 max, inspiratory muscle training (IMT) device.
