Abstract

The goal of this research is to evaluate and compare the functional abilities of the special anti-terrorist unit from Serbia and professional basketball players. The idea is to determine whether members of the special unit police have high functional abilities and at what level are they compared to professional athletes. The sample of participants, for the purposes of this research, consisted of 162 respondents with an average age of 29.75±8.12 years who were classified into two groups. One group consisted of members of the SAF (special anti-terrorist force) (n=101) of average age 33.74±6.19 years and in other group were elite level professional basketball players from Serbia (n=57), of average age 22.39±4.25 from three Serbian clubs. To measure cardiorespiratory fitness, a cardiopulmonary exercises test (CPET) was performed on a treadmill (HPCOSMOS ®). Maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max), as a measure of aerobic capacity, was determined using the Quark CPET system (Cosmed®) by direct monitoring of gas exchange (oxygen and carbon dioxide). Aerobic ability of members of the Serbian SAF (special anti-teroristic force) can be considered excellent and almost close to the professional athletes, but statisticly lower (p<0.05). Anaerobic capacity is also high and there is no difference in relation to basketball players (p>0.05). These results can be explained by the selection of people who are chosen for this unit, which can be called very rigorous and equated with sports selection. The results of our study point to the fact that a high level of cardiorespiratory fitness is not only required by professional sports, but also by certain professions such as SAF.
特警队员与优秀篮球运动员有氧和无氧能力的差异
本研究的目的是评估和比较塞尔维亚特种反恐部队和职业篮球运动员的功能能力。这个想法是为了确定特种部队警察的成员是否具有高功能能力,以及他们与职业运动员相比处于什么水平。本研究的参与者样本包括162名平均年龄为29.75±8.12岁的受访者,他们被分为两组。一组为塞尔维亚特种反恐部队(SAF)成员101人,平均年龄33.74±6.19岁;另一组为塞尔维亚3家俱乐部优秀水平职业篮球运动员57人,平均年龄22.39±4.25岁。为了测量心肺健康,在跑步机上(HPCOSMOS®)进行心肺运动测试(CPET)。最大耗氧量(VO2max),作为有氧能力的量度,使用夸克CPET系统(Cosmed®)通过直接监测气体交换(氧气和二氧化碳)来确定。塞尔维亚特种反恐部队成员的有氧能力可以认为是优秀的,几乎接近专业运动员,但在统计上较低(p<0.05)。无氧能力也较高,与篮球运动员无差异(p>0.05)。这些结果可以通过选择这个单位的人来解释,这可以说是非常严格的,等同于体育选择。我们的研究结果表明,高水平的心肺健康不仅是专业体育运动所需要的,而且是某些职业(如SAF)所需要的。
