Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify the impact of CrossFit training on some physiological variables (anaerobic power, anaerobic capacity and maximal oxygen consumption) among participants at Hebron’s fitness centers. A total of 38 male subjects were randomly divided into two groups, experimental group (n=19) and control group (n=19). The researcher used the experimental method in the design of experimental and control groups, with the training program applied to the experimental group only. The statistical analysis showed a significant difference (0.05≤ α) between the pre and post measurement for the experimental group in favor of the post measurement. Anaerobic power has reached 35.5%, and the anaerobic capacity has reached 23.6% while the VO2 Max has reached an average variation of 19.9%. While the results showed no statistically significant differences between the two measurements pre and post to the experimental group on variables (body mass index, basal metabolic rate, fat mass), BMI has reached 1.7%, ( and basic metabolic has reached 3.6%. Fat mass of grease has reached 1.6%. The results showed significant differences (0.05≤ α) when performing the post measurement between the experimental and the control group, which was in favour of the experimental group on anaerobic power, anaerobic capacity and the VO2 Max. The researcher has recommended applying CrossFit training at all fitness centres.
