Abstract

Recovery is an attempt to make the body recover after physical exercise. There are several types of recovery: active recovery and passive recovery, but recovery with Far Infrared Radiation (FIR) with infrared bag method is not well known. This study aims to prove the effect of FIR radiation with infrared bag method in the decrease of blood lacic acid level as indirect marker of fatigue after physical activity in submaximal intensity. The method used was pretest-postets control group design, with a sample of 14 people divided randomly into two groups, G1 radiation recovery group FIR 45°C for 15 minutes, G2 control group by lying down for 15 minutes. Both groups were subjected to a maximum of 85% of maximal heart rate with ergocycle, then recovery. The result of indipendent t-test with significance level of p<0,05, delta 2 G1 (pretest-posttest) and delta 2 G2 (pretest-posttest) was p=0,008, meaning there was significant difference of decrease of blood lactic acid level in group FIR with the control group. Thus from the results of this study it can be concluded that the decrease in blood lactate acid levels was greater in the FIR radiation recovery group than the recovery group with lying recovery.
