Clinical Trial Summary

This clinical trial aims to compare the difference between high-intensity interval training and common traditional training on physical fitness, skills, and tactical performance among college ice hockey players in China.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

• 1. How does high-intensity interval training affect the physical fitness of college ice hockey players?

• 2. How does high-intensity interval training affect the skills of college ice hockey players?

• 3. How does high-intensity interval training affect the tactical performance of college ice hockey players? Participants will be asked to do 12 weeks of high-intensity interval training and common traditional training to see if there are differences between the two and the positive effects of high-intensity interval training.

Description:

Through experimental design and quantitative research methods. This experiment will test the effectiveness of the training method by intervening in the selective fitness, skills, and tactical performance of college students using a high-intensity interval training method on the ice. The experiment will use 12 weeks of high-intensity interval training to improve the fitness, skills, and tactical performance of the intervention for ice hockey players. The experiment consists of two groups, with 20 students in the experimental group and 20 students in the control group, to compare the differences between the two groups. The experiment was divided into a discussion group and a general teaching group. The purpose of this experiment is to provide a theoretical basis for the improvement of ice hockey training methods so that college ice hockey players can obtain better competitive performance, especially in physical fitness and technique.

The experimental group (1-12 weeks) performed repeated sprint training, sprint interval training (on-ice 45-s shift length conditioning drill), a long-pass tracking drill, and a chase-the-rabbit tracking drill. There are three phases: 1-4 weeks, 5-8 weeks, and 9-12 weeks, gradually increasing the intensity of training. Similarly, the control group performed varied-pace skating (1 minute accelerated skating, 2 minutes even pace), dribbling and shooting drill (30 m), passing-catching drill (20 m), and 2 on 1 offensive drill (full rink). As in the experimental group, the same three phases were used to gradually increase the intensity.

Intervention

Behavioral:
• Assigned Interventions
Ice hockey players did 12 weeks of on-ice high-intensity interval training. Their training included: Repetitive sprint training Sprint interval training Long-pass tracking drills Chase-the-rabbit tracking drills High-intensity interval training in four types improved college ice hockey players' sports performance in 12 weeks.
• Random Interventions
Ice hockey players did 12 weeks of traditional on-ice training. Their training included: Varied pacing skating Dribbling and shooting Passing and catching drills 2-on-1 offensive tactics Traditional training in four types improved college ice hockey players' sports performance in 12 weeks. A 12-week on-ice training program was conducted on college players to observe its effects on their physical fitness, skills, and tactical performance compared to an experimental and control group.

Other	Maximum oxygen uptake performance of college ice hockey players	1. Maximum oxygen uptake measured during intensity training at 90-95% of maximum heart rate (per minute, per kilogram of body weight, the maximum amount of oxygen obtained (milliliters) will be combined to report VO2 max in ml/kg-min), #ml/kg-min#	12 weeks end
Other	The endurance performance of college ice hockey players	1. The endurance level of the athletes was assessed using the Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test Level 1 scale. The evaluation range is 5-23 points; the higher the score, the higher the endurance level.	12 weeks end
Other	The power performance of college ice hockey players	1. A countermovement jump and a squat jump evaluate the power. The higher the jump, the stronger the power, #cm#	12 weeks end

Other	The passing and shooting performance of college ice hockey players	Number of passes at distance 20m each other in a minute, #pcs#; Number of successful shots on goal in one minute, #pcs#	12 weeks end
Other	Tactical performance among college ice hockey	Evaluate the effect of attacking tactics by the number of shots and goals scored. The more shots and goals scored, the better the tactical effect.; The offensive tactics were assessed based on the level of cooperation among players, their proficiency, and their success rate in passing and receiving. The coordination fluency was evaluated using a scale ranging from 1 to 10, where higher scores indicated greater fluency. The success rate was determined by calculating the percentage of successful passes out of the total passes made, multiplied by 100. Higher values reflected a higher success rate.	12 weeks end
