Effect of eight weeks intermittent training on selected antioxidant factors in soccer players

The purpose of this study was to assess effect of 8 weeks intermittent training on some antioxidant factors (uric acid، total bilirubin and total protein serum) in soccer players. Subjects were 23 young male soccer players. Subjects randomaly were divided into two groups: experimental group (n=13) and control group (n=10). In first، blood samples were collected of all players for evaluation uric acid، total bilirubin and total protein serum. The experimental group trained for 8 weeks، 3 times per week، with given intermittent training. But، control group players not participation in training. After eight weeks، second blood sample were collected of all players for evaluation this antioxidants with repeat first step diet. T test (Paired and independent) was used to Statistics analysis for data in signification 0. 05. In experimental group players showed statistically significant increase after 8 weeks intermittent training in plasma uric acid concentration and significant difference between two groups (p<0. 05). No significant difference between two groups in total bilirubin and total protein serum. The study results indicated that intermittent training in soccer players increase antioxidant capacity of plasma.
