Abstract

Physical exercise on high frequency and intensity requires cardiopulmonary endurance. Lung vital capacity is ability of lung to maximum respiration. Oxygen in the air can be distributed if it has iron minerals in hemoglobin. Severe physical exercise interferes with the absorption of iron minerals. The research aims to determine the given effect of iron supplements to lung vital capacity of soccer athletes. This is pre-experimental study which uses one group pretest posttest design with analysis of data uses simple regression. Primary data collected from spirometry tests 16 athletes of soccer. Iron minerals supplements given once daily for 30 days. Data analysis showed iron supplements was statistically significant to lung vital capacity with t value = 6.437, a significance value = 0.000, and probability value = 0.05. Iron minerals needs can be obtained from supplements. Adequacy of iron minerals in the body influences changes in lung vital capacity. Iron minerals contained in hemoglobin can bind oxygen and formation of new red blood cells.
