This study compares the maximal responses of a new aerobic tennis field test, the NAVTEN to a known aerobic field test, often used with young tennis players, that is, the continuous multistage 20-m shuttle run test (20-m SRT). The NAVTEN is an intermittent (1-minute/1-minute) multistage test with side-to-side displacements and ball hitting. Ten young elite tennis players aged 12.9 ± 0.3 (mean ± SD) randomly performed both tests and were continuously monitored for heart rate (HR) and oxygen uptake (V[Combining Dot Above]O2) using the Vmax ST (Sensormedics). The 20-m SRT and NAVTEN show similar HRpeak (202 ± 6.1 vs. 208 ± 9.5, respectively) and V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak (54.2 ± 5.9 vs. 54.9 ± 6.0 ml·kg·min). Pearson correlations between both tests were 0.88 and 0.92 for V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak and maximal speed, respectively. The NAVTEN yielded V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak values that are typical for active subjects of that age and are similar to the 20-m SRT supporting its use to measure aerobic fitness of young tennis players in specific and entertaining field conditions. The fact that two-thirds of the tennis players achieved a different ranking (±1 rank) with the NAVTEN and the 20-m SRT suggests that the NAVTEN may be more specific than the 20-m SRT to assess aerobic fitness of tennis players. From a practical point of view, the NAVTEN test is more specific and pedagogical for young tennis players even though both tests yield similar maximal values.
本研究比较了一种新的有氧网球场地测试（NAVTEN）与常用于年轻网球运动员的已知有氧场地测试（20 米连续多阶段穿梭跑测试，20-m SRT）的最大反应。NAVTEN 是一种间歇性（1 分钟/1 分钟）多阶段测试，带有侧向位移和击球。10 名年龄为 12.9±0.3（均值±标准差）的年轻精英网球运动员随机进行了这两种测试，并使用 Vmax ST（Sensormedics）连续监测心率（HR）和摄氧量（V[Combining Dot Above]O2）。20-m SRT 和 NAVTEN 的 HRpeak（分别为 202±6.1 和 208±9.5）和 V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak（分别为 54.2±5.9 和 54.9±6.0 ml·kg·min）相似。V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak 和最大速度的两项测试之间的 Pearson 相关性分别为 0.88 和 0.92。NAVTEN 产生的 V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak 值是该年龄段活跃受试者的典型值，与 20-m SRT 相似，支持在特定和有趣的场地条件下使用 NAVTEN 来测量年轻网球运动员的有氧健身能力。三分之二的网球运动员在 NAVTEN 和 20-m SRT 上获得了不同的排名（±1 级），这表明 NAVTEN 可能比 20-m SRT 更能评估网球运动员的有氧健身能力。从实际角度来看，即使两种测试都产生了相似的最大数值，NAVTEN 测试对于年轻网球运动员来说仍然更具特异性和教学性。
