Aim; To assess the effect of duration and amount of smoking on body functions, physical activity level, performance and exercise level of amateur athletes.
Method; The study was conducted with 66 athletes aged 18-30 years in amateur soccer clubs. Nicotine use level was assessed using the Fagerstrom Tolerance Questionnaire (FTA) and Smoking Dependence Scale, and physical activity level was assessed using the Baecke physical activity questionnaire. In addition, 6-minute walk test (6MWT) was used for performance evaluation and peak flow meter was used to measure peak cough force.
Results; The mean age of the amateur athletes who participated in the study was 24.77±3.31 for smokers and 21.91±4.75 for non-smokers. In this study, 65% of amateur athletes were smokers and 35% were non-smokers. The addiction levels of the athletes who smoked were 3.86±2.04 in the FTA and 30.77±12.08 in the Smoking Addiction Scale. 30.77±12.08. It was found that 6DYT distance and SPO2 value measured after the test were significantly lower in smokers compared to non-smokers (p=0.002 and p=0.027).
Conclusion; As a result of our study, it is seen that smoking has negative effects on performance and SPO2 in amateur athletes. These effects cause negative effects on the individual performance of the athlete. It is seen that amateur athletes have high smoking habits. In this respect, we think that more informative trainings should be given about the negative effects of smoking in order to increase individual health and performance.

Amatör Sporculardaki Sigara Kullanımının Egzersiz Kapasitesi ve Fiziksel Aktivite Üzerine Etkileri

Öz

Giriş ve Amaç: Amatör sporculardaki sigara kullanım süresinin ve miktarının sporcuların vücut fonksiyonları, fiziksel aktivite düzeyi, performans ve egzersiz seviyesine etkisini değerlendirmektir.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma amatör futbol kulüplerindeki 18-30 yaş arasındaki 66 sporcu ile gerçekleştirildi. Çalışmada nikotin kullanım seviyesi Fagerstrom Tolerans Anketi (FTA) ve Sigara Bağımlılık Ölçeği; fiziksel aktivite düzeyi Baecke fiziksel aktivite anketi kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Ayrıca performans değerlendirmesi için 6 dakika yürüme testi (6DYT) ve tepe öksürük kuvvetini ölçmek içinde pik flow metre kullanıldı.
Bulgular: Araştırmaya katılan amatör sporcularda sigara içenlerin yaş ortalamaları 24.77±3.31, sigara içmeyenlerin ortalamaları 21.91±4.75 tespit edildi. Yapılan bu araştırmada amatör sporcuların %65’i sigara kullanırken, %35’i sigara kullanmamaktadır. Sigara içen sporcuların bağımlılık düzeyleri FTA’da 3.86±2.04, Sigara Bağımlılık Ölçeği’nde ort. 30.77±12.08 olarak bulundu. Sigara kullanan sporcuların kullanmayan sporculara göre 6DYT mesafesi ve test sonrası ölçülen SPO2 değeri anlamlı derece düşük olduğu bulundu (p=0.002 ve p=0.027).
Sonuç: Çalışmamız sonucunda amatör sporcularda sigara kullanımının performans ve SPO2 üzerinde olumsuz etkilerinin olduğu görülmektedir. Bu etkiler sporcunun bireysel performansında negatif etkiye sebep olmaktadır. Amatör sporcuların sigara kullanım alışkanlıklarının yüksek olduğu görülmektedir. Bu açıdan bireysel sağlık ve performansın arttırılması için sigaranın olumsuz etkileri hakkında daha fazla bilgilendirici eğitimlerin verilmesi gerektiğini düşünmekteyiz.
