| Summary: | The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of vitamin C
consumption in aerobic capacity, anaerobic capacity and body fat percentage among
Malaysia elite football players in six weeks intervention. This study used purposive
sampling where all the subjects for this study were from FELCRA FC and UKM FC.
The total subjects participated in this study were 36 (N=36) subjects where 18 subject

into groups which was FELCRA FC (experimental) and UKM FC (control). The
experimental group received 1000mg of vitamin C tablet everyday while the control
group received no treatment of any supplements during six weeks intervention. Result
-
showed that there is a significance difference (p<O.05) in body fat percentage for both
experimental (p=O.OI) group and control (p=O.OI) group. In the anaerobic capacity and
aerobic capacity, result for both groups showed that there is no significant difference
(p>O.05). As conclusion, the findings in this study indicated that the lOOOmg of vitamin
C consumption among Malaysia elite football players did not show any significant
improvements in aerobic and anaerobic capacity after six weeks of intervention.
