Some Anthropometric Measurements and Their Relationship With Lunges and Pulse Absolute Vital Capacity Before and After Effort In Football

Abstract

The problem of the research lies in answering the following questions; does
lunges vital capacity related to heart pulse? Is heart pulse related to some anthropometric
measurements according to energy systems? The aim of the research is to identifying the
anthropometric measurements, lunges vital capacity and heart rate during effort according to
working energy systems in footballers as well as finding the relationship between absolute
vital capacity and heart pulse before and after effort according to energy systems of
footballers. The researcher used the descriptive method. The subjects were (27) advance
football players from Erbil club then (16) players only were included in this research. The
researcher used electronic stopwatch to measure time, scales for mass and measuring tape for
measuring the height and girth. Sprometer was used for measuring lungs capacity and
stethoscope for measuring heart pulse. 100m dash test was conducted as a test. The subjects
were tested before and after the tests then the data was collected and treated using simple
correlation and standard deviation to come up with the results.The researcher concluded that
there is a high significant correlation between anthropometric measurements used in the
research as well as significant correlation between vital capacity during and after 100m
running for 4 and 5 minutes. There were no significant correlations between vital capacity,
heart pulse and anthropometric measuring. The researcher recommended paying attention to
respiratory system physiology and making regular tests on players according to their energy
systems to find the relationship between capacity, heart pulse and anthropometric
measurements.
