Exercise is a planned, structured and repeated form of physical activity with the aim of improving health or
wellness. As the intensity, extent and length of exercise changes, its effect on metabolism also changes. The aim
of the study is to investigate the effects of regular exercise on the development of aerobic and anaerobic capacity.
Nine women and 14 men with a mean age of 19.17 ± 0.98 years, who had previously been involved in different
sports branches (volleyball, handball, football and athletics) participated in this study. Participants applied a
special exercise program for aerobic and anaerobic capacity development for six months. Before starting the
exercise program of the participants, their height, body weight, 30-meters run, 60-meters run, 20-meters shuttle
run and vertical jump measurements were made. The training effect was observed by repeating the
measurements every month. Descriptive analyses, Repeated Anova and Paired Sample T Tests were used for
statistical evaluation. Bonferroni Analysis, one of the Post-Hoc Tests, was performed to determine the differences
between the data (p<0.005). Statistically significant differences were found between the results of the 30-meters
run, 60-meters run, 20-meters shuttle run and vertical jump test results in the first month of the participants and
the same test results at the end of the 6th month (p<0.001). There were statistically significant differences
between the 30-meters run, 60-meters run, 20-meters shuttle run and vertical jump test results repeated every
month (p<0.001, p<0.005). It was concluded that the exercise program applied had a positive effect on the
development of aerobic and anaerobic capacity.
