Sodyum Bikarbonat Takviyesinin Güreşe Özgü Performans ve Yorgunluk Belirteçleri Üzerindeki Etkisi

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı beş günlük sodyum bikarbonat takviyesinin güreşçilere özgü anaerobik performans ve yorgunluk belirteçleri üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirmektir. Çalışmaya 18-23 yaş aralığında, aktif olarak güreş yapan 15 erkek sporcu katılmıştır. Katılımcılara 5 gün boyunca 0.3 g/kg dozunda sodyum bikarbonat takviyesi uygulanmıştır. Takviye öncesi ve sonrası, güreşe özgü manken atışı testi ile performans değerlendirilmiş, ayrıca parmak ucu ve intravenöz kan örneklerinden laktat ve kan gazı parametreleri analiz edilmiştir. Laktat düzeyleri egzersiz sonrası anlamlı şekilde artmış, ancak sodyum bikarbonat takviyesi öncesi ve sonrası arasında anlamlı fark bulunmamıştır (p> 0.05). Öte yandan, manken atışı performansı anlamlı düzeyde artmıştır (p <0.05). Kan gazı analizlerinde ise pH, pCO₂, HCO₃⁻, sO₂ ve FO₂Hb parametrelerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı değişimler gözlenmiştir. Bu bulgular, takviyenin metabolik alkaloz eğilimi yaratarak performansa katkı sağladığını göstermektedir. Sonuç olarak bu çalışma, kısa süreli ve yüksek şiddetli eforlar gerektiren güreş gibi sporlarda 5 gün süreyle uygulanan sodyum bikarbonat takviyesinin performansı artırabileceğini ortaya koymuştur. Laktat düzeylerinde anlamlı değişiklik olmamasına rağmen, performans artışının hidrojen iyonlarının tamponlanması ve asit-baz dengesinin korunması yoluyla sağlandığı düşünülmektedir.

The Effect of Sodium Bicarbonate Supplementation on Wrestling-Specific Performance and Fatigue Markers

Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a five-day sodium bicarbonate supplementation regimen on wrestling-specific anaerobic performance and fatigue markers. Fifteen male wrestlers, aged between the mean age of 18.53 ± 0.74, and all actively engaged in wrestling, participated in the study. Wrestlers received sodium bicarbonate supplementation at a dose of 0.3 g.kg-1 for five consecutive days. Performance was assessed before and after supplementation using a wrestling-specific suplex throw test. Additionally, lactate and blood gas parameters were analyzed from fingertips and intravenous blood samples. Lactate levels significantly increased post-exercise; however, no significant difference was found between pre- and post-supplementation levels (p>0.05). On the other hand, dummy throw performance significantly improved (p<0.05). Blood gas analysis revealed statistically significant changes in pH, pCO₂, HCO₃⁻, sO₂, and FO₂Hb parameters. These findings suggest that the supplementation contributed to performance enhancement by inducing a state of metabolic alkalosis. This study demonstrated that five days of sodium bicarbonate supplementation may enhance performance in sports like wrestling, which involve short-duration, high-intensity efforts. Although no significant changes in lactate levels were observed, the performance improvement is thought to result from the buffering of hydrogen ions and the maintenance of acid-base balance.
