THE IMPORTANCE OF VO2MAX IMPROVEMENT TO IMPROVE THE PHYSICAL CONDITION OF FOOTBALL PLAYERS

Abstract

The purpose of this Community Service activity is to provide knowledge to coaches and their players about the importance of increasing VO2Max so that they can improve physical conditions even better for these players. VO2Max is the maximum volume of Oxygen processed by the human body during intensive activities. VO2 max is a level of body ability expressed in liters per minute or milliliters/minute/kg body weight. VO2Max is usually used to measure an athlete's endurance in performing a sport. A football player with a higher VO2MAX value, the better his stamina. Vice versa, the lower the value, the worse the stamina of a player. Seeing the importance of this need, it is very necessary to carry out this socialization with coaches and football players at the Fortuna FC Football Club. because so far no one has done this socialization so this activity will produce new knowledge for coaches and football players.
