Materials and Methods 60 young male Taekwondo athletes aged 9 to 15 years participated in this study. They were randomly divided in two groups: training group (TG, 30 subjects) and control group (CG, 30 subjects). Both groups performed Taekwondo training program consisting of three sessions per week during four months. Every session was of 90 minutes duration. CG performed a classic training program of Taekwondo based on skills and tactical training. For TG, training consisted of three different exercises of high-intensity interval training as proposed by Cometti (2007). The last week of each month was planned as tapering. Exercises were based on muscle strength, sprint and mixed training (muscle strength and sprint). The interval training duration (exertion/recovery) was set at 10s/20s, 30s/30s and 15s/30...
