On the sample of 32 fourth grade students of some Belgrade highs schools, who
had the physical education classes carried out at the city’s swimming pools, an attempt
was made to evaluate the effects of the two different programmes of swimming training
in different intensity zones, defi ned relative to the anaerobic threshold. The examinees
were divided into two groups out of 15 i.e. 17 participants who were not (according to
statistics) signifi cantly different in terms of average time and heart frequency during the
400 m swimming test and heart frequency and time measured after 50 m in the moment
of reaching the anaerobic threshold.
The fi rst training model consisted of swimming at the intensity level within the
zone below anaerobic threshold, while the second model involved occasional swimming
at a higher intensity sometimes surpassing the anaerobic threshold. The experimentalprogramme with both sub-groups lasted 8 weeks with 3 training sessions per week,
2 ‘of which we’re identical for both experimental groups, with the third one differing
regarding the swimming intensity, this in the fi rst group being still in the zone below,
and in the second group occasionally in the zone above the anaerobic threshold. The
amount of training and the duration were the same in both programmes. The aim of the
research , was to evaluate and to compare the effects of the two training models, using
as the basic criteria possible changes of average time and heart frequency during the
400 m swimming test and heart frequency and time measured after 50 m in the moment
of reaching the anaerobic thereshold.
On the basis of the statistical analysis of the obtained data, it is possible to
conclude that in both experimental groups there were statistically signifi cant changes of
average values concerning all the physiological variables.
Although the difference in effi ciency of applied experimental programmes is not
defi ned, we can claim that both of experimental treatments had signifi cant impact on
the increase of swim speed at 400m and 50 m measured in the moment of reaching the
anaerobic threshold. swimming, anaerobic threshold, swim speed
