ELITE TURKISH GRECO-ROMAN WRESTLERS ANAEROBIK AND AEROBIC POWER PROFILES

Aim. The aim of the study is to determine the aerobic and anaerobic strength parameters of elite level Turkish Greco-Roman wrestlers. Methods. The study examined the wrestlers' physical attributes (height, body weight), anaerobic power (maximum anaerobic force), and aerobic capacity (maximum oxygen consumption). The Bruce protocol was used to test aerobic capacity and determine VO2 max. Results. These results demonstrate that Turkish Greco-Roman wrestlers' physiological and physical characteristics are comparable to those of wrestlers from other nations. Conclusions. Training regimens can be designed in a more individualized and efficient manner by carefully examining the wrestlers' anaerobic and aerobic capacity. In turn, this improves wrestlers' performance and boosts their level of competitive success. Keywords: greco-roman wrestlers, anaerobik power, aerobic power, turkish wrestlers.
