Abstract

This study aimed to determine: (1) the effect of circuit and interval training methods on agility and VO2max; (2) the difference in the effect of high leg muscle endurance and low leg muscle endurance on agility and VO2max; (3) the interaction between circuit training, interval training and leg muscle endurance (high and low) on agility and VO2max. Materials and methods. This research is an experiment with a 2×2 factorial design. In this study, the number of samples used was 20 players selected by purposive sampling. Agility was measured with the Illinois agility test instrument, VO2max was measured with a multistage fitness test, and leg muscle endurance was measured with a wall sit test. Data analysis used a two-way ANOVA test with a significance level of α < 0.05. Results. The results of this study are as follows: (1) there is no difference in the effect of the circuit and interval training methods on the agility of football players, there are significant differences between the circuit and interval training methods in their effect on the VO2max of football players; (2) there is a difference between high and low leg muscle endurance for agility and VO2max, α < 0.05; (3) there is an interaction between the circuit, interval training, and leg muscle endurance (high and low) on agility, α < 0.05. Conclusions. There is an interaction between circuit training, interval training, and leg muscle endurance (high and low) on the agility of Porprov soccer players in Pati Regency. Meanwhile, there was no interaction between circuit training, interval training, and leg muscle endurance (high and low) on the VO2max of Porprov football players in Pati Regency. © Badawi, A., & Nasrulloh, A., 2023.
