The aerobic power, expressed relative to body mass, of different Saudi elite players is one of the most important area of interest and with great values because of its restrictively that reported in the previously literatures, the present study was conducted to investigate the aerobic characteristics of Saudi elite, Saudi triathlon and soccer players and to compare between measures of aerobic power between both players using graded treadmill protocol to assess maximal cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2max), within a groups of high trained youth Saudi elite players.
Twenty two professional Saudi athletes, 11 Saudi triathlon athletes, 11 Saudi soccer players were selected. Their Mean±SD for age, height, weight, body mass index (BMI), body fat mass (%), body fat free mass percentage, cardiovascular parameter, including, absolute and relative peak oxygen consumption "VO2max" and maximal heart rate "HR max". Data were analyzed using independent sample t-test and SPSS software.
Descriptive statistics for anthropometric characteristics were performed to compare between the means, independent sample. T-test showed mean value of absolute "VO2max" (3605.18±515.74), for triathlon athletes, while football players absolute VO2max, (3645.63±897.60) with non-significant different between the groups. Overall mean of peak training values was (3625.40 mL min-1), relative VO2max was appears to be (53.46±7.242) mL-1 min-1 kg-1, for triathlon athletes, while football athletes relative VO2max has a mean value and ±SD of (52.35±6.342) mL-1 min-1 kg-1 with non-significant different between the groups. HR max was (157.90±8.167) beats min-1 for triathlon athletes, while football players HR max, was (139.18±6.646) beats min-1 with non-significant difference between the groups.
This clinical approaches that use Cardio Pulmonary Exercise Testing (CPET) in performance testing revealed that aerobic power, expressed relative to body mass, of Saudi soccer players was in the near range of values normally reported in the literatures for soccer players and triathletes during exercise training as well. Degrees of aerobic achievements during both exercise testing seems to be with non-significant different between Saudi soccer player and Saudi triathlon.
不同沙特精英运动员相对于体重的有氧能力，是最重要且极具研究价值的领域之一，因为此前文献报道有限。本研究旨在调查沙特精英运动员、沙特铁人三项运动员和足球运动员的有氧特征，并使用分级跑步机测试方案评估最大心肺适能（VO2max），比较两组运动员的有氧能力指标，研究对象为一组训练有素的沙特青年精英运动员。
选取22名沙特职业运动员，其中11名沙特铁人三项运动员，11名沙特足球运动员。记录他们的年龄、身高、体重、体重指数（BMI）、体脂质量（%）、去脂体重百分比、心血管参数，包括绝对和相对峰值耗氧量“VO2max”以及最大心率“HR max”，并计算均值±标准差。数据采用独立样本t检验和SPSS软件进行分析。
对人体测量特征进行描述性统计以比较均值，独立样本t检验显示，铁人三项运动员的绝对“VO2max”均值为（3605.18±515.74），而足球运动员的绝对VO2max为（3645.63±897.60），两组间差异无统计学意义。训练峰值的总体均值为（3625.40 mL min-1），铁人三项运动员的相对VO2max似乎为（53.46±7.242）mL-1 min-1 kg-1，而足球运动员的相对VO2max均值±标准差为（52.35±6.342）mL-1 min-1 kg-1，两组间差异无统计学意义。铁人三项运动员的HR max为（157.90±8.167）次/分钟，而足球运动员的HR max为（139.18±6.646）次/分钟，两组间差异无统计学意义。
在性能测试中使用心肺运动测试（CPET）的这种临床方法表明，沙特足球运动员相对于体重的有氧能力，在文献报道的足球运动员和铁人三项运动员运动训练期间的正常数值范围内。在两项运动测试中，沙特足球运动员和沙特铁人三项运动员的有氧能力水平差异无统计学意义。
