ALTI HAFTALIK DAYANIKLILIK ANTRENMAN METODUNUN BASKETBOLCULARDAKİ BAZI HEMATOLOJİK DEĞERLER ÜZERİNE ETKİSİ

The objective of the study is to determine the effects of a six-week endurance training method applied to amateur basketball players on some hematological parameters. Athletes in the study group are volunteers engaged in basketball as an amateur in Erzurum. While creating the group of 16 male basketball players in the range of 18 – 20 years of age, it has been noted for them to not have any disease, not using any drugs regularly and not being in the process of an acute illness. Athletes applied endurance training program was built in the range of 25-60 minutes flat race throughout 6 weeks, 5 days a week with the interval training method. Interval training was built 1 set for first 2 weeks and 2 sets from third to sixth weeks to adapt the study group to training. Blood samples were taken from the subjects at the beginning of the study and analyzes were carried out. At the end of the study, 6 weeks later, blood samples were taken again and analyzes were performed and compared. In this study, the effects of endurance training program applied to basketball players for six weeks on blood hematology values were investigated. After the analysis, it was observed that six weeks of endurance training have organized the liver enzymes of athletes and accelerated the burning of the fat depot. Moreover training has increased lipid oxidation. According to the obtained results, coaches must follow antioxidant-supported nutrition programs for athletes. Also taken into consideration of the individual and environmental factors in training programs is expected to improve performance of athletes.
