The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of 6-week core strength exercises on TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone), T3 (triiodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine) levels in men who exercise regularly. A total of 24 healthy volunteers were included in the study with an average age of 20-22 years. Before the study, individuals were randomly divided into two groups as control (n: 12) and core exercise (n: 12) groups. While no application was made to the control group, a program consisting of core exercises suitable for their levels was applied to the core exercise group for 6 weeks, 3 days a week. Blood samples were taken from the forearm veins for analysis of TSH (mlU/L), T3 (pg/ml) and T4 (ng/dl) values from all individuals between 09:00 and 10:00 in the morning before and one day after the exercise application. In the analysis of the data obtained, a statistically significant difference was found in the TSH and T4 values of the exercise group in favor of the post-test (p<0.05). In the statistical analysis of the control and experimental groups, a significant difference was found between the groups in favor of the experimental group (p<0.05). At the end of the study, we can say that core strength exercises applied to men cause changes in thyroid metabolism.
