Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to analyse the alterations in the physical physiological and performance characteristics of the elite Greco-Roman wrestlers who experienced a prolonged period of detraining 14 weeks as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic Elite Greco-Roman wrestlers volunteered for the research Heart rate variability values were measured during the detraining period and for 8 weeks of subsequent training and then interpreted for training periods with different workloads Body fat percentage measured during detraining and every 2-week interval during the training period To determine the fitness status of wrestlers the Specific Wrestling Fitness test was used before and following the 8-week training period
Detailed Description: Elite athletes train continuously and at high intensity in a planned and regular basis in order to achieve success in the international competitions in line with the necessity of the competitive conditions to maintain the success achieved and to preserve it for a long time As a result of these high-intensity training the physiological adaptations of elite athletes are different when compared to sedentary individuals and other athletes For this reason athletes who want to show high performance take care to maintain these adaptations as well as develop them In addition it is necessary to provide training stimuli at a regular and sufficient level in order to maintain or develop these adaptations Excessive training stimulus can lead to overtraining while inadequate or complete cessation of training can result in a loss of performance known as detraining

High-level competitive athletes who do not want to experience this loss of performance avoid taking a long break from training by limiting the detraining period However in some cases injury chronic injury pregnancy in female athletes etc athletes are forced to enter a detraining period In these cases of partial or complete cessation of training it is predicted that the organism39s response time to exercise is prolonged In case of interruption of training for up to 4 weeks decreases can be seen in general endurance and muscular endurance performance without significant changes in muscle strength while losses in muscle strength are seen in addition to muscle endurance in periods exceeding four weeks 3 Research indicates that after a detraining period there is a tendency for skinfold thickness body fat mass and percentage to increase and for fat-free mass and athletic performance to decrease On the other hand literature says that athletes can regain their muscle strength in a short time after short-term 3 weeks detraining Yasuda et al reported that as a result of the strength training practices applied with the blow flow restriction method after 3 weeks of detraining to individuals who had previously done strength training muscle strength gains were rapidly achieved

In addition to physical losses such as strength and endurance in the organism the autonomic nervous system ANS which is an indicator of general health and an important reflector of optimal sportive performance in athletes and heart rate variability scores which are frequently used to determine ANS may also show negative deterioration in the event of cessation of exercise A prolonged period of detraining can cause significant deterioration in heart rate variability values and is often associated with a decreased athletic performance

In early 2020 a worldwide outbreak of coronavirus disease has occurred which is considered a global emergency Preventive strategies aimed at minimizing the risk of infection include the utilization of social gatherings The impact on elite sport has been significant with ongoing championships halted and major international events postponed Moreover the majority of elite athletes are forced to participate in isolated and usually unsupervised training sessions within the boundaries of their own homes Following the lockdown it was recommended that trainings be carefully planned and that performance and health parameters be closely watched to ensure a safe return to the competitions This approach helped prevent injuries and allowed athletes to gradually regain their physical condition

Although there are some studies on the effects of long-term inactivity on physical and physiological adaptations and sports performance parameters in elite athletes there are not enough studies on elite wrestlers that examine the effects of such prolonged inactivity 14 weeks on their physical and physiological recovery levels recovery and the present knowledge of the period required for elite-level wrestlers to attain optimal performance levels in getting ready for potential competitions remains inadequate

The purpose of this study was to examine the changes in the physical and physiological conditions of elite wrestlers on the Turkish National Wrestling Team who were exposed to physical inactivity for 14 weeks after the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown followed by an 8-week training and competition period
