Abstract
Hockey is one of the team sports that require a high level of physical effort, so it is essential to determine the training load and recovery periods to avoid the overload problems. The researcher aimed to identify the recovery rates of the cardio-respiratory system following high (speed endurance) and moderate (cardio-respiratory endurance) intensities sessions in international and national field hockey players. Recovery rates, vital capacity , heart rate , systolic blood pressure , rate of cardiac muscle consumption , and efficiency of the circulatory system were measured over 15 minutes recovery period The results showed that the recovery rate for the international level players was much better than the players of the national level after both sessions. The researcher concluded that the recovery rates for the measured physiological parameters are faster in the elite international players than the national players. This observation would help in designing the training programs for different trained populations.
