On the sample of 32 fourth grade students of some Belgrade highs schools, who
had the physical education classes carried out at the city’s swimming pools, an attempt
was made to evaluate the effects of the two different programmes of swimming training in
different intensity zones, defi ned relative to the anaerobic threshold. The subjects were
the examinees were divided into two groups out of 15 i.e. 17 participants who were
not (according to statistics) signifi cantly different in terms of observed anthropometric
dimensions and relative indexes of body compositionThe fi rst training model consisted of swimming at the intensity level within, theat a higher intensity sometimes surpassing the anaerobic threshold. The experimental
programme with both sub-groups lasted 8 weeks with 3 training sessions per week, 2 of
which were identical for both experimental groups, with the third one differing regarding
the swimming intensity, this in the fi rst group being still in the zone below, and in the
second group occasionally in the zone above the anaerobic threshold. The amount of
training and the duration were the same in both programmes. The aim of the research
was to evaluate and to compare the effects of the two training models, using as the basic
criteria possible changes of observed anthropometric dimensions and relative indexes
of body composition.
Although the difference in effi ciency of applied experimental programmes is not
defi ned, we can claim that the systematic differences that appeared between the initial
and the fi nal evaluation in both groups consisted of: changes of body weight, thickness
of abdominal skin and fat tissue, both in relative and absolute terms. swimming, anaerobic threshold, body composition, MFR index
