Efforts to reduce or at least minimize fatigue among martial arts athletes, including Pencak Silat, have been made; one of which is by wearing a cooling vest. This paper aimed to identify the effectiveness of recovery using composition of fibrous protein (Cv-f) cooling vest among Indonesian Pencak Silat athletes. As many as 27 athletes were required to join in an experiment where they had to perform a 1600m running with such predetermined aspects as the level of humidity, temperature, and other conditions on an athletic track. The participants were divided into three groups to see the difference between the group receiving the treatment (wearing the cooling vest) and one which did not receive any treatment. The results showed that the vest gave comfort either in terms of cooling process or in terms of physiological responses due to the vest wearing. This implied that the vest gave significant contribution of fatigue reduction both for long and peak exercises. © School of Engineering, Taylor's University.
