The Effect of Wrestling Training on Muscular Strength and Aerobic and Anaerobic Endurance

Abstract

This research aims to identify the effect of wrestling training on developing essential physical components, including muscular strength and aerobic and anaerobic endurance, given the crucial role these components play in enhancing the physical and technical performance of wrestlers. The study employed a structured training program that included wrestling-specific exercises and supplementary exercises targeting the major muscle groups, while varying the intensity and duration of the training load to suit the demands of the sport.

The results showed a significant improvement in muscular strength among participants due to increased neuromuscular adaptation. Furthermore, an increase in the efficiency of the circulatory and respiratory systems was observed, which was reflected in a higher level of aerobic endurance. The measurements also showed a positive improvement in the ability to withstand high exertion and a shorter recovery time, indicating enhanced anaerobic endurance.

The research concluded that wrestling training not only develops technical and tactical skills but also effectively contributes to strengthening fundamental fitness components, making it a comprehensive training method that can be utilized in athletes' physical conditioning programs.
