Regarding the importance of warming and its effect on the physiological mechanisms of oxygen consumption in the recovery period, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of warming intensity on the response to oxygen consumption dynamics of recovery period after continuous maximal exercise in female basketball players. Done.

Seven female basketball players with mean age of 21 /1 1.52 years, height of 166.8 3 3.72 cm, body mass of 60.85 5 5.76 kg and mean body mass index of 21.7 ± 1.72 In this study, the maximum oxygen consumption was 41.44 ± 3.40 ml / kg. After measuring Vo2max, the subjects performed two moderate and intense warm-up protocols in two separate sessions and then continued maximal activity (the Balck and Weir protocols) to reach the exhaustion. All respiratory gases were collected during the activity and 10 minutes from the beginning of the recovery period using a respiratory gas analyzer. Data were analyzed using paired t-test.

According to the results of the study, there was no significant difference between half recovery time and half recovery time (P <0.05).

 Regardless of its intensity, warming improves athletic performance, but the process of changes in oxygen consumption in the recovery period after the two exercise protocols is similar.
