Análisis de la intensidad de una sesión de Jump Training

Abstract

Introduction: Jump classes include exercises on an individual mini trampoline, comprehend sequences of rhythmic and choreographed movements and are prescribed to improve the aerobic capacity. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the intensity of a Jump session performed with the musical cadence of 135 beats per minute (bpm) and using a choreography for lower body is in line with the recommendations of the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) to improve the aerobic condition. Materials and Methods: Eleven healthy female participants composed the sample (23.2±2.2 years-old, 61.7±8.3kg, 165.3±6.1cm). The volunteers were subjected to a maximum test using the Bruce protocol on a treadmill and, subsequently, a second test on a mini trampoline to check the consumption of oxygen (VO2) and heart rate (FC) during the performance of a pre-established choreography at a cadence of 135 bpm for 10 min. Results: Statistical analysis found an average FC of 81% and VO2 of 64%. Discussion: It was concluded that a Jump session at musical cadence of 135 bpm and using a choreography for lower body is in line with the recommendations of ACSM regarding the intensity.
