Background: The Covid-19 epidemic has greatly changed the lifestyles and habits of millions of people around the world, and it has been observed that these changes have become permanent. Aim: The aim of our research is to examine the anxiety levels of female and male athletes for catching the new type of corona virus (Covid-19). Method: The survey method, one of the quantitative research models, was used in the study. The population of the research consisted of athletes (n=198) who were actively involved in sports in various sports clubs and in various branches in the districts of Istanbul, on the European side (Bakırköy, Güngören, Zeytinburnu). The data were collected online by applying the survey technique. The New Type Coronavirus (Covid-19) Anxiety Scale of the athletes (SYTKYKÖ) was used as a data collection tool. As a statistical procedure, it was determined that the data did not show normal distribution and Mann Whitney U, Kruskal Wallis-H analyzes from non-parametric tests were used. Findings: It is seen that there is a difference between the anxiety levels of catching Covid-19 according to the gender of the athletes, their education level, the status of people around them catching covid-19, the level of chronic disease, and their training status. There was no difference between the anxiety levels of catching Covid-19 according to the age, sports branch and years of doing sports of the participants. Result: As a result, it was concluded that the anxiety levels of the athletes of catching Covid-19 were high. Key words: Pandemic, anxiety level, sports
The purpose of this study is to examine the acute effects of combine foam roller (FR) and routine warm-up protocols on some performance parameters in combat athletes. Material and Methods: A total of 16 fighters (boxing, kickboxing, muaythai) athletes, 7 female and 9 male, were included in the study. The study was carried out with 2 measurements with an interval of 1 week. On the first day, the athletes were tested for flexibility, sprint, agility, and jumping, respectively, after performing static-dynamic stretching after 10 minutes of low-paced jogging. On the second day, the athletes were tested for flexibility, sprint, agility, and jumping, respec-tively, after performing static-dynamic stretching and foam roller exercises, respectively, after 10 minutes of low-paced jogging. Statistical analysis of the data obtained in the study was made using the IBM SPSS 23 analysis program. Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test was used to evaluate the difference between different warm-up protocols. Significance level was accepted as p<0.05. Results: Significant difference was observed 20 m sprint performance between the static stretching (SS)+dynamic stretching (DS) and FR warm-up protocols combined static stretching and dynamic stretching in favor of SS+DS (p<0,05). When the vertical jump height between the 2 different warm-up protocols of the athletes were examined, while a significant difference was found in jump height (cm) in favor of SS+DS. it was seen that there is a significant difference in favor of SS+DS+FR in the jump numbers of the athletes (p<0.05). Conclusion: FR combine static and dynamic stretching protocols do not have a positive effect on performance parameters in combat athletes, but SS+DS can improve athletes' vertical jump height and anaerobic performances.
Bu araştırmada 10 haftalık pilates egzersiz programının beden algısı üzerine etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmaya 52 kişi deney (yaş 32,62±5,03 yıl) ve 52 kişi kontrol grubu (yaş: 34,23±2,82 yıl) olmak üzere toplamda 104 sedanter kadın katılmıştır. Çalışma programında deney grubuna 10 hafta süresince; haftada 2 gün, 50 dakika pilates antrenmanı yaptırılmıştır. Araştırmaya katılan kadınların bedenlerini algılama düzeylerini belirlemek için Çok Yönlü Beden Benlik İlişkileri Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Ölçekler ön test ve son test şeklinde her iki guruba da uygulanmıştır. Araştırmaya katılan deney grubunun beden algısı ön test ve son test puanlarının karşılaştırılması sonucunda; görünüş değerlendirme, görünüş yönelimi, fiziksel yeterliliğin değerlendirilmesi, fiziksel yeterlilik yönelimi, sağlık değerlendirme, sağlık yönelimi, beden alanlarında doyum ve toplam puan açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık olduğu tespit edilmiştir (p<0,05). Kontrol grubunun beden algısı ön test ve son test puanlarının karşılaştırılması sonucunda ise görünüş yönelimi, fiziksel yeterliliğin değerlendirilmesi, fiziksel yeterlilik yönelimi ve toplam puan açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık olduğu tespit edilmiştir (p<0,05). Buna karşın görünüş değerlendirme, sağlık değerlendirme, sağlık yönelimi, beden alanlarına doyum alt boyutlarında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık olmadığı tespit edilmiştir (p>0,05). Sonuç olarak, pilates egzersizlerinin beden algısı üzerine olumlu etkisi olduğu ve pilates egzersizlerinin sedanter kadınların beden algılarını geliştirdiği söylenebilir.
