Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of mental training with brain-wave feedback on mental attention and energy substrates after maximal exercise. All subjects were 22 male athletics in basket-ball on J, C university. They were divided into control and training group. The treadmill exercise protocol test for this study was performed on modify`s Bruce protocol. Subjects reported to the laboratory on a morning following an overnight fast. No food, coffee, tobacco, alcohol, and exercise was allowed 12 hour before experiment. Blood samples were taken from antecubital vein in rest. All data were analyzed by t ? test or ANOVA with repeated measures of SPSS. The results were as follows : 1. The changes of mental attention level were significantly difference between before and after mental training. 2. The changes of blood glucose and ammonia concentration following maximal exercise were no significantly difference between control and training group. 3. The changes of blood lactate concentration following maximal exercise were significantly difference between control and training group. In conclusion, mental bio-feedback training had an effect on the change in mental attention and blood lactate following maximal exercise. Therefore, this results suggested that mental bio-feedback training has associated with improved mental attention level as well as increased recovery capacity on physical fatigue. More effective and various mental bio-feedback training programs should be develop in the near future to be helpful to the athletics.
