Abstract
The aim of this study is to examine the relationships between anaerobic power, back strength and dynamic balance, which play an important role in wrestler performance. 14 male freestyle elite wrestlers (age = 19.07 ± 0.99 years, height = 1.70 ± 0.04 m, body weight = 74.67 ± 8.48 kg, BMI = 25.57 ± 2.31 kg/m2) voluntarily participated in the study. Anaerobic power, back strength and dynamic balance measurements of the participants were taken. Pearson Correlation test was performed to determine the relationship between these features. A statistically significant positive correlation was found between anaerobic power and back strength, between back strength and right and left leg balance, between left leg balance and right leg balance. As a result, it can be said that back strength is effective on dynamic balance in wrestlers and anaerobic power affects back strength.
