Effects of limited and expanded rest intervals on the Navy Physical Readiness Test : (Vol. 12,2).

The purpose of this research was to examine the effects of variable rest intervals between events on the Navy Physical Readiness Test (PRT). The test consisted of push-ups (max 2 m), curl-ups (max 2 m) and a 1.5 mile run or 500 yd swim. In addition, Borg's Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) was r...

520 |a The purpose of this research was to examine the effects of variable rest intervals between events on the Navy Physical Readiness Test (PRT). The test consisted of push-ups (max 2 m), curl-ups (max 2 m) and a 1.5 mile run or 500 yd swim. In addition, Borg's Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) was recorded after the 1.5 mile run/500 swim. Subjects included 117 volunteer male (n=102) and female (n=15) active duty and reserve Naval personnel stationed at the Naval Reserve Center, La Crosse, WI. Rest interval between events ranged between 2-4 m for treatment condition 1 and exactly 15 m for treatment condition 2. Subjects were divided into 42 subgroups to minimize the effects of age, gender, and past performance. There was a significant relationship between rest interval and run time (p=.004) and overall test score (p=.029), with treatment condition 2 recording the faster times/higher scores. There was no significant relationship between rest interval and curl-up, push-up, or Borg's RPE scores (p.05). The finding that there was a significant (p=.004) correlation between rest interval and run time on the PRT suggests that all energy systems act in concert with one another as a continuum.
