Introduction: High-intensity training changes anthropometric and Biochemical parameters in athletes, so this study aimed to investigate the effect of high-intensity exercise training on physical fitness, plasma cortisol, and testosterone of 15-20-year-old male taekwondo athletes in Rasht.
Material & Methods: This quasi-experimental research was conducted in the 15 to 20-year-old male Taekwondo population of Rasht. The subjects of this study were randomly divided into two experimental (age 17.70±2.26 years), and control (age 16.90±1.72 years) groups. The control group performed the usual taekwondo exercises for 90 minutes along with strength endurance exercises, while the experimental group performed high-intensity exercises (HIE) along with the usual taekwondo exercises for 75 minutes. Before and after 8 weeks of the study period, body mass index (BMI), aerobic and anaerobic power, plasma cortisol, and testosterone were assessed. Dependent and independent t-tests were used to analyze the data of the study. A significance level of less than 0.05 was considered.
Results: The results of this study showed that compared to the pre-test, there was a significant increase in plasma testosterone, aerobic, and anaerobic power in both groups, a decrease in cortisol in the control group, and an increase in plasma adrenaline in the experimental group (p<0.05). Comparisons between groups showed a significant increase in plasma adrenaline and anaerobic power in the experimental group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: HIE training in Taekwondo athletes probably has a positive effect on physical fitness factors, cortisol, and testosterone hormones and improves the performance of these athletes.
