For the second time this year, the Faculty of Sports Science, Yogyakarta State University appeared on Jogja TV in the Doctor Kita program, Saturday, July 25, 2020. This event was held by the Sports Coaching Education Study Program, FIK UNY, and was hosted by 2 Jogja TV hosts, Heru Nugroho and Ninda Nindiani with the theme “Healthy! Back to Training, Achievement on the Field and Success in Academics”. The three speakers are Prof. Dr. Siswantoyo, M.Kes., Dr. Endang Rini Sukamti, M.S., and dr. Muhammad Ikhwan Zein, Sp.K.O. On that occasion, Prof. Dr. Siswantoyo, M.Kes. explained that the output of students studying at FIK UNY became academically great students and also excelled. In order to make it happen, FIK opens a special superior class for athletes who have national and international achievements. So that later they will not only excel in the field but also be academically smart. Not only as jargon but several national and international athletes in 2020 have also completed their studies.

Among them were 10 students who were also former U-19 Football National Team players, including Dinan Yahdian Javier, Martinus Novianto Ardhi, Maldini Pali, Rudolf Yanto Basna, and others. There is also a bronze medal winner at the 2019 SEA GAMES, Prima Wisnu. In addition, the football player and singer who is often invited to duet with (late) Didi Kempot is an alumnus of FIK UNY, Ayub Antoh. According to dr. Muhammad Ikhwan Zein, Sp.K.O., is currently booming cycling. Both young and old fill the streets in Indonesia, especially on weekends, he said. Cycling is a recreational sport if it is done not on a bicycle track, so when using public facilities, you should still refer to health protocols, namely maintaining distance, wearing masks, and exercising with low to moderate intensity. It's even better if you exercise in private property areas such as courtyards and stay away from crowds, he added.

For athletes who are in the detraining stage, which is a condition where the athlete's body drops due to the absence of routine training, (due to the pandemic) they may not immediately exercise with the same exercise and intensity when he is fit and in the top performance stage, because it will result in injury. . Thus, athletes need to rebuild their physique with periodization, i.e. re-adapting physical anatomy for strength conditioning. While Dr. Endang Rini Sukamti M.S. stated that FIK is always ready with the best sports facilities, including the GOR Athletics and Football Stadium, swimming pools, indoor and outdoor tennis courts, table tennis halls, gymnastics halls, softball fields, volleyball fields as well as and integrated laboratory for supporting student learning facilities. In the integrated laboratory, there are adaptive laboratories, exercise laboratories, sports performance laboratories, measurement laboratories, biomechanics laboratories, sports massage laboratories, micro-teaching laboratories, and computer laboratories. Meanwhile, FIK also has an anatomy laboratory, a physiology laboratory, and a physical condition laboratory. Currently, FIK is also opening registration for students with outstanding athletic achievements, starting from July 20 to August 22, 2020. These students will see their portfolios, certificates, and physical tests, he concluded. (PD)
