Abstract
Physical activities in new normal led to changes in body temperature as well as the amount of oxygen consumption, pulse and changes in chemical compounds in the body. Vitamin C can prevent tissue damage by reducing the production of oxidants which have a protective effect against muscle injury. This study aims to determine the effect of vitamin C as an antioxidant on pulse recovery after physical activity on hockey athletes of PON South Sulawesi in the new normal. This type of research is an experimental with a randomized group design pretest and posttest design. The Subjects of this study were 30 South Sulawesi PON hockey athletes and the data was analyzed with T test. The result of this research showed that the group which was given Vitamin C is greater than the group that was only given unsweetened syrup with comparison 48,60 and 39,60.Thus, can be concluded that the provision of vitamin C has better effects on pulse recovery compared to the group that was only given unsweetened syrup.
