Abstract:

We all know that in an active rest the recovery processes in our body go faster. But is this the case when the loads are submaximal, especially in sport like tennis? Thanks to the new technologies we were able to monitor what is the level of excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) during the exercise itself as well as in the first few minutes after the recovery (the break between the games). We used 3 types of exercises that have a higher level of load than the one in real matches. We will show what are the levels in the beginning of the load, at its peak and from 1 to 5 minutes after its end. In this way, we will monitor how the recovery processes take place in the tennis player’s body.
