Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to determine the effect of regular exercise on some respiratory parameters of amateur footballers and wrestlers. Respiratory parameters of the participants in the study were measured using a spirometer (PonyFx, Italy). SPSS program was used in the statistical analysis of the data obtained. The normality test was assessed by the Shapiro-wilk test. Descriptive statistics, one-way variance analysis (ANOVA) and Tukey HSD, one of the Post Hoc tests, were used to determine the direction of the group differences. Participants of the study were 60 voluntary men including 20 sedentary, 20 footballers and 20 wrestlers. Mean age, height and body weight of amateur wrestlers, footballers and sedentary respectively were 20.15, 20.95 and 20.20 years; 177.75, 173.75 and 173.20 cm; 74.45, 67.05 and 67.70 kg. Footbalers and wrestlers' FVC, FEV1, PEF (L / s), VC and MVV values were found to be statistically significantly higher than sedentary individuals (p<0.05). In addition, the FEV1 value of the wrestlers was significantly higher than the footballers (p <0.05), while there was no statistically significant difference between the wrestlers and the footballers in other parameters (p>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the FEV1 / FVC (%) and FEF25-75% (L / s) values of the groups (p> 0.05).We think that regular exercise positively affects the respiratory functions, and when examined on the branch basis, there are differences in some parameters due to different training contents.
