Abstract

The purposes of this research are to reveal: (1) increasing maximum oxygen consumption through interval and continues step-up training; (2) step up training type that is better to increase maximum oxygen consumption. The research was conducted at Surakarta, using experiment method, with Prepost Test Control Group Design. The sample consisted of 60 students taken randomly. The sample was divided into two groups. One group was trained with interval step-up, another group with continues step-up. The training was conducted in six weeks and there were three meetings a week. Maximum oxygen consumption data were collected by Multistage Fitness Test. The data were analyzed by T Test. The results of the data analysis concluded that: (1) the mean of increasing maximum oxygen consumption on interval stepup group was 6.7133 mi/kg body weight, and continues step-up group was 4.0567 mi/kg body weight; (2) interval step-up was better to increase maximum oxygen consumption.
