Fifteen elite class male handball players aged 19-30, playing in primary league voluntarily participated in this study. All field and laboratory tests were given twice: one before and one after the  </span> <span style="font-size: 14px;">season. Subjects performed 260 training sesions and 60 cup and league competitions during the nine-month period the  </span> <span style="font-size: 14px;">first two months of which were planned as preparatory phase. Statistical analysis were done using paired t-test. As a result of one year follow-up training, no significant changes were observed in the body weights of the subjects. At the end  </span> <span style="font-size: 14px;">of the season, their body fat significantly decreased (p< 0.01), but their lean body weight significantly increased (p< 0.01).  </span> <span style="font-size: 14px;">Vertical and double-feet jumping, and 5x30 m speed endurance running values showed significant improvements (p< </span> <span style="font-size: 14px;">0.01) although no significant improvement was found in their 30m sprint results. While the increment in the anaerobic </span> </div> <span class="fontstyle0"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: 14px;">power values were significant, there was a significant decrease in their aerobic power values (p< 0.01). Significant increases were also obtained in the left and right hand grip strength of the subjects (p< 0.01). In this study, it was determined that one season follow-up training had positive effects on some motoric and physiological parameters of high level  </span> <span style="font-size: 14px;">male handball players. </span> </div> </span> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br> </div> </p>}, number={3}, publisher={Gazi University}
