Abstract

In addition to physical, physiological, psychological and technical factors, the environmental factors such as ambient temperature can also affect the performance of athletes and especially their health. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to investigate The effects of ambient temperature on some physical, physiological and inflammatory indices in cadet wrestlers after circuit training based on wrestling technique in cadet wrestlers. Among cadet wrestlers of Kurdistan clubs who were champions in provincial competitions 2015, 21 wrestlers (Age: 15.04±0.8 years, weight: 59.20±12.67 kg, height: 163.47±7.39 cm, body fat percent: 10.03±3.39%) were selected as subjects based on inclusion criteria. Then, according to personal characteristics, subjects were divided into three groups: high temperature, normal temperature and low temperature groups. After providing the desired temperature (30, 18 and 10 °C), subjects complete a circuit training protocol based on wrestling techniques (8 stations in a circle training). Blood samples were collected before the exercise, immediately and 30 minutes after exercise. ANOVA with repeated measures and bonferroni post hoc tests at a significance level of 0.05 were used to investigate the differences within and between groups.The results showed that ambient temperatures can affect on inflammatory, oxidative stress, fatigue and physiological factors of cadet wrestlers. Thus, due to the importance of the adolescence period, special attention should be paid to the ambient temperature of competition and training gyms of this age- group.
