Abstract
Oxygen is the most critical component for running at fast pace or long duration workout, the aim of present investigation was to find out the consequence of pre-orientation in opposition to randomization of subjects for the prediction of maximum oxygen uptake via twelve minutes run and walk test. For the study thirty athletes of 19 to 23 years with a mean and SD of 20.83 ± 1.17 from L.N.I.P.E., Gwalior (M.P.) selected as subjects; subjects performed the 12-MRT in three variants: performing alone the 12-MRT on a 400 m track (Alone-V1); performing 12-MRT on a 400 m track in randomized groups of three (R-Group, V2); performing 12-MRT on a 400 m track in pre-oriented groups of three the (PO-Group, V3). To determine the difference of predicted VO2 max among different groups the repeated measure analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed and the significant level was set at 0.05. The significant difference (p>0.05) was found in calculated VO2 max among testing protocol. The result of this study shows significance differences between V1 & V2, V1 & V3 and V2 & V3, which gives an idea that running in a group improves the VO2 max performance of athletes.
