The present study investigated the heart rate response to playing tennis with special reference to the skill levels and ages of the participants. Data obtained in a similar manner during earlier studies of badminton and squash players were compared with that obtained during tennis. The number of rallies, mean rally time and actual playing time in 30 minutes of play was also compared for the different skill levels and sports. Results showed that playing tennis raised the players' heart rates to 68-70% of their predicted maximum heart rate (PMHR). Playing squash and badminton could raise heart rates to 80-85% of the players' PMHR which was significantly higher than the values obtained for tennis. The actual skill level of the participants within their chosen sport did not have a significant effect in predicting the physical demands of squash or tennis but was important in predicting the heart rate response of badminton players. The more skillful the badminton player the greater the cardiac response as a result of game play. Analysis of time spent in actual play revealed that tennis players were involved in play for only five of the thirty minutes of game play, compared to 15 and 10 min respectively for squash and badminton. Skill level within each sport was only a significant factor in predicting length of play for squash players in which the medium and highly skilled groups played significantly longer than those of a lower level of skill.
本研究特别参照参与者的技能水平和年龄，调查了打网球时的心率反应。将早期对羽毛球和壁球运动员进行类似研究时以相同方式获得的数据与网球研究中获得的数据进行了比较。还比较了不同技能水平和运动项目在30分钟比赛中的回合数、平均回合时间和实际比赛时间。结果表明，打网球可使运动员的心率提高到其预测最大心率（PMHR）的68 - 70%。打壁球和羽毛球可使心率提高到运动员PMHR的80 - 85%，这明显高于网球运动所获得的值。参与者在其所选运动项目中的实际技能水平，对预测壁球或网球的身体需求没有显著影响，但对预测羽毛球运动员的心率反应很重要。羽毛球运动员的技能越高，比赛时的心脏反应就越大。对实际比赛时间的分析表明，网球运动员在30分钟的比赛中仅参与了5分钟的比赛，而壁球和羽毛球运动员分别为15分钟和10分钟。每个运动项目中的技能水平只是预测壁球运动员比赛时长的一个重要因素，其中中等技能和高技能组的比赛时间明显长于低技能水平组。
