Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the 12-week volume-equated strength (S), endurance (E), and concurrent strength and endurance (SE) training on cardiorespiratory characteristics in the obstacle test track (OTT) in female horseback riders. Subjects (n = 52) (30.4 ± 8.9 years) were randomly assigned to S (n = 8), E (n = 8), SE (n = 9), and control (C) (n = 7) groups. Training consisted of progressive S, E, or SE training 3 ×/week and riding exercise 4-6×/week. The measurements included oxygen uptake (VO2), blood lactate (BLa), and heart rate (HR) in the OTT. The results showed that VO2ridingpeak decreased significantly (
