The aim of this study is to examine the effects of short-term plyometric exercises on element metabolism in adolescent males. For this purpose, a total of 24 volunteer men between the ages of 16-18 who do not exercise regularly participated in the study. Before the study, the groups were randomly divided into two groups as control group (n: 12) and exercise group (n: 12). Blood samples were taken from both groups before the study and one day after the end of the study for elemental determination. Sodium, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, calcium and iron levels were analyzed in blood samples. No application was made to the control group. The individuals in the exercise group were given a 60-minute plyometric exercise program, three days a week for four weeks, with jump intensity varying between 180-270 ground contact. In the findings obtained, calcium and iron levels were found to be significant in favor of the post test in the exercise group (p <0.05). Considering the difference between the groups, a statistically significant difference was found in favor of the exercise group (p <0.05). No significance was found in the control group (p> 0.05). As a result, we can say that plyometric exercises applied for four weeks affect calcium and iron levels in element metabolism.
