EFFECT OF SELECTED AEROBIC EXERCISE ON CARDIOVASCULAR ENDURANCE OF MALE STUDENTS OF BURKA META SECONDARY SCHOOL GORO MUTI WOREDA, EAST HARARGHE ZONE, OROMIA REGIONAL STATE, ETHIOPIA Mohammed Usman Ahmed; (PhD) Desta Enyew; (PhD) Shemelis Mekonnen Cardiovascular endurance is a component of physical fitness which plays great role during exercises. The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of selected types of aerobic exercise on cardiovascular endurance of students. The study was conducted to improve cardiovascular endurance on 30 male students of Burka Meta secondary school of Grade 11 students. These thirty male students were assigned as experimental and Control group their age ranges 18 and 20 years. All subjects participated in selected aerobic exercises for 12 weeks i.e., three days per week and 60 minutes duration per day. Pre-test, during training test and post training test were conducted on physical fitness variables such as step test and 12 minutes run. The data collected from subjects were analyzed by paired simple t-test to determine the differences between pre-test and post-test mean value results of the participants of the study. The mean value for Step Test before training was 51.2 m and 51.1 m for EXGr and CONG and after training was 67. 1m and 51.7 m for EXGr and CONGr after 12 week training program. The mean value of pre training tests of twelve minutes run for EXGr and CONGr was 1700 m and 1740 m, and during post-test results of 12 minutes run for EXGr and CONGr were 2284 m and 1753 m were observed. Therefore, the results obtained from the study indicate that there were significant improvements within 12 minutes run. However, in the case of steps test, a test result was decreased because of improvement in the performance. So, the findings of the study reveals different responsible bodies like coaches, sport commission office, education office, school principals and sport Science teachers should take considerable actions for the improvement of the Athletics proficiencies of the students as well as others youth 57p.

EFFECT OF STRAWBERRY JUICE SUPPLEMENTATION AND AEROBIC EXERCISE ON CARDIOVASCULAR ENDURANCE AND REACTION TIME OF THIRD-YEAR SPORT SCIENCE STUDENTS OF ODA BULTUM UNIVERSITY, OROMIA REGIONAL STATE, CHIRO, ETHIOPIA MEKDES DEBEBE BELETE; Abinet Ayalew (PhD); Shemelis Mekonnen (PhD) Cardiovascular endurance and reaction time are crucial for health and physical performance. Strawberry juice supplementation and aerobic exercise have shown potential benefits for cardiovascular health and cognitive function. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of strawberry juice supplementation and aerobic exercise on the cardiovascular endurance and reaction time of Third-year sport science students at Oda Bultum University. An experimental pretest-posttest design was employed. A total of 21 students were included using census sampling and randomly assigned to three groups: Strawberry Juice Group, Aerobic Exercise Group, and Aerobic Exercise with Strawberry Juice Group. The Aerobic Exercise group engaged in 45 minutes of aerobic exercise three times per week for 8 weeks. The Aerobic Exercise with Strawberry Juice group received both strawberry juice supplementation 500 mL of strawberry juice (Alang brand) and engaged in aerobic exercise. The Strawberry Juice group consumed the strawberry juice but did not engage in the Aerobic exercise. Cardiovascular endurance was assessed via a 12-minute run test, and reaction time was measured using a ruler drop test. Data were collected at baseline and after the 8-week intervention period. Analysis was conducted using paired sample t-tests for within-group comparisons and two-way MANOVA with post hoc Bonferroni multiple comparisons for between-group differences using SPSS version 26 (p < 0.05). Results showed significant improvements in cardiovascular endurance and reaction time for all three groups after eight weeks (p < 0.05). Multiple comparisons between groups revealed that the Strawberry juice with aerobic exercise Group showed more significant changes in cardiovascular endurance and reaction time compared to the Strawberry Juice Group and Aerobic exercise Group. In conclusion, the combination of strawberry juice supplementation and aerobic exercise had a greater positive effect on cardiovascular endurance and reaction time than either intervention alone among the sport science students 70

THE EFFECT OF COFFEE AND MILK MIXTURES ON SKILL RELATED PERFORMANCE OF HARAMAYA TOWN FOOTBALL PLAYERS, EAST HARARGHE, OROMIA REGIONAL STATE, ETHIOPIA Tofik Abdella Usmael; Shimelis Mekonen (PhD); Abinet Ayalew (PhD) The purpose of this study was to investigate the Effects of coffee and milk mixtures on skill related performance of Haramaya town football players, Thirty (30) Haramaya town football players free from any health problems, with age group between 20 – 23 years were selected by purposive sampling technique from the total population of 60. The selected subjects were divided into 2 groups i.e. control (15) and experimental (15) groups and randomly each group consisting 15male Football players. The experimental group of the subjects underwent 12 weeks’ Coffee and milk mixture supplement and exercise, three days per week and the duration was 40-60 minutes while the control group continued with only exercise for 12 weeks, three days per week for 40-60 minutes. Pre-test, and post tests were conducted on all variables such as Power Test, 35 Meter Speed Test and Hexagonal Obstacle Test each subject was tested at the same time of day. The data collected from subjects were analyzed by SPSS version 23 and the comparison of mean value results was carried out by paired sample t-test. The level of significance was p<0.05. The finding of the present study showed Margaria-Kalamen Power Test, from pre to post test was showed significant change (Mean Difference48.9 ) in experimental group and little change (MD , 31.5) for control group, 35 Meter Speed Test pre to post test showed significant change (MD, .2 ) for experimental group and little change showed (MD,0.11) for control group and Hexagonal Obstacle Test pre to post test showed significant change(MD, -2.34) for experimental group and little change showed (MD, -1.52) for control group . So this study concluded that 12-weeks Coffee and milk mixture consumption in combined exercise have a positive effect on improving of reaction time, speed and agility of Haramaya town football players. Based on the above test result alternative hypothesis was accepted while, null hypothesis was rejected. 66

THE IMPORTANCE OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES ON STUDENTS ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT IN MEA BOKO SECONDARY SCHOOL, GUJI ZONE, OROMIA REGIONAL STATE, ETHIOPIA DEBELLA WARE TONNO; AbinetAyalew (PhD); DestaEnyew (PhD) The objective of this study was to investigate the importance of physical activities on students’ academic achievement in Mea Boko Secondary School. Specifically, the study was occurred on Mea Boko Secondary School, Guji Zone Students. In the process of completing this study, related literature was reviewed to provide a background of significant relation between physical activity and students’ academic achievement and descriptive survey research design with mixed research method was used to collect data that involved a total of 66 sample subjects from the sample secondary school (student=60, physical education teacher =3 and 3 school directors). To analyze the collected data, frequency and percentages were used to determine the students’ perception toward the significant relation between physical activity and students’ academic achievement, the contribution of physical activity and significant benefits of physical activity for the students’ academic achievement. The survey results showed that, athlete students are benefited from their participation in the physical activity programs that is resulted in their academic good achievement of the students. This is due that the athlete students are strong enough in their physical movement, in their mental development, in their cognitive, psychomotor, affective skills, social life benefits and the likes that helped them in their academic achievement to some extent of achievement. The study concluded that: the sample secondary school administrations are expected to help the physical education classes creating favorable teaching leaning environment in the school compound and to provide the required type and amount of sport materials, facilities and equipment’s for the participation of all students in their school for the sake of helping students in their academic achievement 61
