Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between thigh skin temperature, knee muscle strength, aerobic and anaerobic exercise capacities in sailing. 20 sailing athletes were assessed during pre-seasonal assessment period. Thermal camera imaging was performed to assess the skin temperature at anterior and posterior parts of thigh for both legs. Knee muscle strength was evaluated by using isokinetic dynamometer, which was found to be a reliable device to evaluate isokinetic knee muscle strength. Treadmill VO2max Test was performed to monitor the development of athlete's aerobic exercise capacity. The Wingate cycle ergometer test was performed to assess the two major components of anaerobic exercise capacity, namely, maximum anaerobic power and relative anaerobic capacity. No significant relationship was found between anaerobic power- capacity and aerobic capacity r0.50 . Also skin temperature was in relationship with aerobic exercise capacity r>0.50 but not in relationship with anaerobic exercise capacity r

YELKENCILERDE UYLUK DERI SICAKLIĞI, KUVVET, AEROBIK VE ANAEROBIK EGZERSIZ KAPASITELERİ ARASINDAKİ İLİŞKİNİN ARAŞTIRMASI

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı yelkencilerde uyluk deri sıcaklığı, diz kas gücü, aerobik ve anaerobik egzersiz kapasiteleri arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmaktır. Sezon öncesi değerlendirme döneminde 20 yelkenli atlet değerlendirildi. Her iki bacak için uyluk ön ve arka kısımlarındaki cilt sıcaklığını değerlendirmek amacıyla termal kamera ile görüntüleme yapıldı. Diz kası kuvveti, izokinetik diz kas kuvvetini değerlendirmek için güvenilir bir cihaz olan izokinetik dinamometre kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Sporcunun aerobik egzersiz kapasitesinin gelişimini izlemek için koşu bandı VO2max Testi yapıldı. Anaerobik egzersiz kapasitesinin iki ana bileşeni olan maksimum anaerobik güç ve göreceli anaerobik kapasiteyi değerlendirmek için Wingate bisiklet ergometresi testi yapıldı. Anaerobik güç-kapasite ile aerobik kapasite arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunamadı r 0.50 . Ayrıca deri sıcaklığı aerobik egzersiz kapasitesiyle r> 0.50 ilişkilidir, ancak anaerobik egzersiz kapasitesi ile ilişkili değildi r
