Abstract

Introduction: Sports ergometry performed on boxers allows the assessment of physiological parameters, used as indicators of physical performance. Objectives: Redesign specific ergometric protocols for boxing and apply the CARDIOTRAINING_CIDC software, for the benefit of individualized sports planning. Material and method: Longitudinal retrospective study, between April 2020 and April 2021; sample: 14 boxers from the Cuban National Team; Age: 24 to 31 years old, all male. Two types of maximum effort tests were carried out on a treadmill: one conventional and the other specific for boxing. Software, CARDIOTARINING_CIDC, an Excel VBA macro, was used to calculate and store heart rate values. Results: The following were recorded in the first and second ergometries: maximum heart rate and its percentage with respect to the estimated one; maximal oxygen consumption (means: 45 and 61.4 mL/kg/min), myocardial oxygen consumption (30.3 mL/min and 41.8 mL/min), and metabolic equivalent (means: 12.8 METS and 17.6 METS). Three of these indicators had a statistically significant relationship (p<0.01) in the ergometry designed for the study, compared to the conventional one. Conclusions: The specific redesign of ergometry for boxing was more effective in performing maximal cardiopulmonary stress tests.
