Abstract

In playing basketball, body fitness is important. It is closely related to biomotor abilities which consist of several components, one of which is endurance. An attack movement in a basketball game would require good cardiorespiratory endurance. Aerobic endurance is related to oxygen intake.This study aims to determine the improvement of cardiorespiratory endurance in male students who took basketball as a preferred extracurricular activity gained through circuit training. This is experimental research with onegroup pretest-posttest design. The sample of this research consisted of 15 male students. Circuit training was carried out three times a week for four weeksat an exercise intensity of 65%‒90% of maximum heart rate. From hypothesis testingwitha paired t-test,it was found out that P = 0.000 (0.000 < 0.05), suggesting that there was a meaningful difference. This result shows that circuit training improved cardiorespiratory endurance.
