The effect of running at a lactate threshold pace on aerobic capacity and 3000-meter runners' achievement Under 20 years old

Abstract

The research aims to prepare training exercises for running with a lactate threshold step in aerobic capacity and a 3000 m sprint finish, and to learn about running with a lactate threshold step in aerobic capacity and a sprint finish. The areas of research include the human field: runners of the Middle Euphrates and the capital Baghdad under the age of 20 for the 3000 m event for the year 2022-2023 and the field Timetable: 11/14/2022 - to 3/25/2023 Spatial scope: Stadiums of the governorates of the Middle Euphrates and the capital, Baghdad.

The researcher used the experimental method by designing equal experimental and control groups to suit the research objectives and hypotheses. He identified the research community from the runners of the Middle Euphrates governorates (Karbala, Babil, Najaf, Diwaniyah) and the capital, Baghdad, for the 3000m competition under 20 years of age, numbering 16 runners, and the researcher chose a sample of 10 for his research. Runners were randomly selected. Accordingly, the sample constituted (62.5%) of the research population. It was possible to reach the conclusions, which are: that running at a lactate threshold pace has a positive effect on the development of aerobic capacity and the achievement of 3000 m under the age of 20 years. The development that occurred in aerobic capacity contributed to the development of achievement. Based on the results of the research that were reached within the limits of the research sample, it was possible to reach recommendations. It is the necessity of paying attention by medium and long distance coaches, especially 3000m coaches, to developing aerobic capacity, and using the lactate threshold running step with other groups and at a certain rate in order to improve achievement in various medium and long distance events.
