Although many studies have been done on high intensity interval training and traditional training methods on sedaners and athletes, it is the first study on the effects on respiratory muscle strength in elite athletes. In this regard, the purpose of the study is to investigate the difference between the YSI method and the influence of the traditional athletic training program on the respiratory muscles and some physiological parameters. The study included 16 elite athletes between 18 and 22 years of age. Athletes are divided into randomly two groups, which are experiment (n:8, ICAO) and control (n:8, traditional) using double blind experiment design. The training program has been applied before and after size length, body weight, body mass index (VKI), anaerobic power, aerobic capacity, maximum inspired pressure (MIP), maximum respiratory pressure (MEP), resting heart rate, flexibility and long jumping tests. Dependent sampling t test for pre-final test differences, independent sampling t test has been used to determine the variation according to groups. All parameters have been significantly increased (p<0,05) after the ICA and traditional athletics training. Comparing the percentage changes in the two training groups, statistically significant improvements have been achieved in all parameters except flexibility for the experiment group (p<0,05). As a result, elite athletes found that the 6 week YSI has more positive effects on respiratory muscle strength and other physiological parameters than the traditional athletic training program. Considering the positive response of the athletes at the physiological level of harmony in a short time, it is believed to be a positive contribution to the competition between the elite athletes. The results we obtain about the respiratory muscles can also make a significant contribution to literature.

Although a great number of studies have been conducted on sedentary individuals and athletes related to high intensity interval training (HIIT) and traditional training methods, this is the first study on the effect of high intensity interval training on respiratory muscle strength in elite athletes. In this respect, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of HIIT method and traditional athletics training program on respiratory muscles and some physiological parameters and to analyze the difference between them. 16 elite athletes aged between 18 and 22 participated in the study voluntarily. The athletes were randomly divided into two groups: experimental (n: 8, HIIT) and control (n: 8, traditional) using double-blind experimental design. Height, body weight, body mass index (BMI), anaerobic power, aerobic capacity, maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP), maximal expiratory pressure (MEP), resting heart rate, flexibility and standing long jump tests were applied to the subjects before and after the training program. Paired Samples T test was used for pre and post-test differences and Independent Samples T test was used to determine the change according to groups. Significant increase was observed in all parameters after HITT and traditional athletics training (p<0,05). When the percentage changes in the two training groups were compared, statistically significant improvement was found in favour of the experimental group in all parameters except flexibility (p<0,05). As a result, it was found that 6-week-long HIIT caused more positive effects on respiratory muscle strength and other physiological parameters than traditional athletics training program in elite athletes. Considering that HIIT responds positively to the physiological adaptation level of the athletes in a short time, it is thought that it will make a positive contribution to the competition among elite athletes. In addition, our results on respiratory muscles can make important contributions to the literature.
