Training Using Adaptive Sports Masks And Its Effect On The Physiological Changes Associated With The Phenomenon Of Athlete's Kidney Among Handball Players

Authors : Zemali Hassane .

Abstract

Sports training leads to numerous physiological changes that affect most body systems. Positive changes in these systems result in an improved level of athletic performance. Training requirements also lead to a set of structural and functional changes that elevate the body's functional level. This study aims to investigate the effect of sports training using adaptive sports masks on the physiological changes associated with the phenomenon of athlete's kidneys among handball players. (22) handball players were randomly selected and divided into two equally matched and homogeneous groups: an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group underwent a proposed (12) week training program, while the control group did not. Blood and urine samples were collected before and after the first and final training sessions. The results showed significant differences between pre- and post-training measurements in serum albumin, serum globulin, and glucose levels. This confirms the effective impact of physical training using adaptive sports on the physiological changes associated with the phenomenon of athlete's kidneys, resulting in improved kidney function and optimal adaptation due to training load pressure. These findings support the necessity of using adaptive sports masks in sports training programs.
