The study included physical active (G1) n=30 and sedentary (G2) n=15 students with upper level hearing impairment, ranging in age from 16 to 20 years and communicating through lip- reading and sign language. In order to determine the physical fitness level of the subjects, their anthropometric characteristics, and other characteristics such as aerobic capacity, anaerobic power, vertical jump, right and left hand grip and velocity were measured. Analysis of the data obtained from the subjects was made using the “Independent - Samples T” test. A significant difference was observed between G1 and G2 in terms of aerobic power (MaxVO2) respectively 54,3 and 45 ml/kg/dk, vertical jump 53,6 and 45 cm, anaerobic power 110.2 kg/m/sec, 100.4 kg/m/sec, and velocity- 30 m run 4.31 and 4.59 sec (p<0.05).

The latter aim was to compare participants’ short- and ultra-short-term heart rate variability before-during-post-tests. Our hypothesis was that there would be a significant difference between test performance and HRV parameters, and the high performing group would have significantly higher HRV parameters than the low performing group. Fifty-three healthy men (Mage=26.9±4 years, Mheight=177.9±5.7 cm; Mweight =77.8±8.7 kg) were recruited in the current study. We completed the data collection procedure for each participant in four consecutive days. On day-1, anthropometric measurements were conducted and then participants performed isokinetic tests. On day-2, participants performed anaerobic tests; on day-3 equilibrium tests, and on day-4 aerobic capacity tests. The HRV reco...

Eleven elite male freestyle wrestlers (age = 18.8 ± 1.1 years, height = 170.9 ± 5.3 cm, weight = 75.2 ± 9.6 kg, BMI = 25.7 ± 2.4 kg/m2) who struggle in Turkish Wrestling Super League from Bursa Metropolitan Municipality Sports Club, voluntary participated. Subjects’ height, weight, body composition, balance (Peri Length 443.1 ± 140.6 cm, Aria Gap P 20.6 ± 12.9 cm), anaerobic power (106.3 ± 16.8 kg/m/sec), back strength (140.2 ± 30.7 kg) and grip strength (47.6 ± 6.4 kg) test were measured. Pearson correlation coefficient were performed to determine the relationship between variables. In conclusion, anaerobic power, strength and balance are related to body composition components such as height, body weight, BMI, arm and leg fat %, muscle mass and body weight.

Araştırmaya toplam 1113 kadın ve erkek üniversite öğrencisi katıldı. Deneklerin fiziksel aktiviteleri günlük adım sayısının adımsayar (Yamax PW610) ile ölçülmesi yöntemi uygulandı. Vücut kompozisyonu belirlenmesinde Bioimpedance yöntemi kullanıldı (Tanita BC-418MA). Araştırmaya katılan kadın ve erkek üniversite öğrencilerinin ortalama günlük adım sayıları sırasıyla 8020±3117 adım/gün ve 8652±3258 adım/gün olarak belirlendi. Kadın ve erkek üniversite öğrencilerinin sırasıyla günlük adım sayısı ile VKİ (r =-.115 ve-.129), SağBYY (r =-.110 ve-.131) ve SolBYY (r =-.119 ve-.103), arasında istatistiksel olarak negatif anlamlı ilişki bulunmaktadır. Günlük adım sayısı ile Enerji Tüketimi (r = .026 ve .022) arasında ise istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişki bulunmamaktadır. Sonuç olarak, üniversite öğrencilerinin fiziksel aktivite seviyeleri yetersiz ve erkek öğrencilerinin günlük adım sayıları kadınlara göre daha yüksek olduğu. Ayrıca günlük adım sayısı ile vücut yağ yüzdesi arasında negatif ilişki bulunmaktadır.

For this reason, an experimental group (n=33, mean age=22.1 years) and a control group (n=35, mean age=22.6 years) were set up from participants of non-major Elective Chess course (VIII) taught in Uludag University, Faculty of Education, Department of Physical Education and Sports. As subjects of application, the fundamental chess topics of "The King and Rook Checkmate" and "Two Bishops Checkmate" were selected. After chess instruction of 2 hours every 5 weeks, the topics of "The King and Rook Checkmate" and "Two Bishops Checkmate" were taught to both groups in 6 th and 7 th weeks respectively. While traditional instruction methods were applied to control group, internet and computer supported education was given to experimental group. After the lessons, the students of both groups were asked to make "The King and Rook Checkmate" and "Two Bishops Checkmate". The analysis of the obtained data were made on SPSS 12 statistic program and evaluated with Chi-Square test. Significance level was accepted as p<0.05. 72.7% of the students in the experimental group and 54.3% of the students in control group learned the "The King and Rook Checkmate" topic. 69.7% of the students in the experimental group and 62.9% of the students in control group learned the "Two Bishops Checkmate" topic. As a result, can say that computer and internet supported chess instruction is more effective and efficient compared to traditional methods. Investigation on the effect of computer and internet supported instruction method on other subjects in chess was purposed.

This study was conducted on 40 subjects. The subjects were divided into 4 groups; the experimental cadet and the experimental junior groups consisted of 10 wrestlers, control cadet and control junior groups consisted of 10 students. Physical fitness tests, percentage-based changes have been calculated in comparison with the initial data. The comparison of groups was made by multi-variable variance analysis. In our study, the increases in strength, aerobic capacity, flexibility, anaerobic power an aerobic capacity of wrestlers during the general preparation, special preparation and competition periods were statistically found much more than of the ones who do not exercise regularly (p<0.05). For wrestlers didn't have training during the transition period, their strength, speed, aerobic capacity, flexibility, anaerobic power an capacity decreased and the percentage of body fat and weight increased. For this reason, wrestlers should have active relaxation during the transition period. The same training program has been applied and it has been seen that there is no significant difference between the changes in anaerobic power, flexibility, speed, strength, weight, anaerobic capacity, aerobic capacity and percentage of body fat of junior and cadet wrestlers (p>0.05). There face, it shows us that the some training program can be applied to cadet and junior wrestlers. In order to follow the improvements in physiological characteristics of wrestlers better, these characteristics should be evaluated before the season, at the end of the general preparation period, special preparation period, the competition period and the transition period when there is insufficiency while improving these characteristics, training programs should be replanned and changed and by this way the insufficiencies of wrestlers should be satisfied before the important competitions.

Twenty-four physically active healthy Caucasian male subjects volunteered to participate in this study. All subjects were from a Physical Education and Sport Department in a large university in Turkey. The study had a counterbalanced crossover design. Each of the subjects applied the following intervention protocols in a randomised order; (a) massage, (b) stretching, and (c) rest. Before (pre) and after (post) each of the interventions, the 10 meter acceleration (AS), flying start 20 meter sprint (FS), 30 meter sprint from standing position (TS), leg reaction time (LR), vertical jump (VJ) and sit & reach (SR) tests were performed. A Wilcoxon's signed rank test was used to compare before and after test values within the three interventions (massage, stretching and rest). The data showed a significant worsening, after massage and stretching interventions, in the VJ, LR (only in stretching intervention), AS and TS tests (p < 0.05), and significant improvement in the SR test (p < 0.05). In contrast, the rest intervention led only to a significant decrement in TS performance (p < 0.05). In conclusion, the present findings suggest that performing 10 minute posterior and 5 minute anterior lower limb Swedish massage has an adverse effect on vertical jump, speed, and reaction time, and a positive effect on sit and reach test results.
