Abstract

The objective of the present study is to describe a practical experiment that can be used to illustrate important concepts related to the Design of Experiments course of the School of Industrial Engineering-URP, using SPSS. A Bifactorial Design of Experiments was conducted to determine the effect of different types of exercises and the fitness level of the students. Three replications were performed, each with five repetitions of three types of exercises. To ensure that the results are reliable, the model's assumptions were verified. Applying the ANOVA, it was concluded that there are significant differences in physical performance between the types of exercises and the students at 95% confidence. Subsequently, a post hoc-DMS analysis was carried out with α= 0.05, which helped to determine in which students and the type of exercise there are differences.The study provides detailed, personalized information that can be used to tailor training and nutrition programs for college students. The results will serve as a guide to optimize the physical performance of each student, taking into account individual needs and the specific demands of each type of exercise and also a general diagnosis in sports teams, or athletes to prepare for future competitions.
