AB  - The aim of this study is assessment of correlation between isokinetic muscle strength and muscle thickness. 54 young male athletes (mean age: 18,296 ± 1,312 years, mean height 177,592 ± 5,063 cm; mean body weight 67,037 ± 6,564 kg) playing in the U17 and U19 age groups of a Turkish professional football 1st league team voluntarily participated in the study. Muscle thickness (rectus femoris, vastus intermedius, gluteus maximus) was measured using Real-time ultrasound (RTUS) imaging. Muscle strength (30°/s-1, 60°/s-1, 180°/s-1) was measured using Humac Norm/Cybex dynamometry. Statistically between isokinetic muscle strength and muscle thickness GMAX (mm) - 30°/s-1 Glut Con Torque (N.m-1), RF (mm) - 60°/s-1 Knee Con Torque (N.m-1), VI (mm) - 180°/s-1 Knee Con Torque (N.m-1), RF+VI (mm) - 60°/s-1 Knee Con Torque (N.m-1) values were significantly. In conclusion, this study showed significant and high correlations of quadriceps thickness measurements with muscle strength.

N2  - Bu çalışmanın amacı, izokinetik kas kuvveti ile kas kalınlığı arasındaki ilişkinin değerlendirilmesidir. Araştırmaya Türkiye profesyonel futbol 1. ligi takımlarından U17 ve U19 yaş gruplarında oynayan 54 genç erkek sporcu (ortalama yaş: 18.296 ± 1.312 yıl, ortalama boy 177.592 ± 5.063 cm; ortalama vücut ağırlığı 67.037 ± 6.564 kg) gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Kas kalınlığı (rektus femoris, vastus intermedius, gluteus maksimus) Gerçek zamanlı ultrason (RTUS) görüntüleme kullanılarak ölçülmüştür. Kas kuvveti (30°/s-1, 60°/s-1, 180°/s-1) Humac Norm/Cybex dinamometri kullanılarak ölçülmüştür. İstatistiksel olarak izokinetik kas kuvveti ve kas kalınlığı arasında GMAX (mm) - 30°/s-1 Glut Con Torku (N.m-1), RF (mm) - 60°/s-1 Knee Con Torku (N.m-1), VI ( mm) - 180°/s-1 Knee Con Torque (N.m-1), RF+VI (mm) - 60°/s-1 Knee Con Torque (N.m-1) değerleri anlamlıydı. Sonuç olarak, bu çalışma kuadriseps kalınlık ölçümleri ile kas kuvveti arasında anlamlı ve yüksek korelasyonlar göstermiştir.
