Abstract

In order to achieve a positive improvement in an athlete's performance, what to do in the next training phase is possible by accurately monitoring the changes made by the previous training phases on performance. The aim of this research is to determine the relationship between dynamic and reactive strength variables for accurately determine the strength requirements of wrestlers. 24 male wrestlers participated in the research voluntarily. The suitability of the data for normal distribution was evaluated with the Shapiro-Wilk test. Kruskall-Wallis H test was used to determine the difference between data groups. Regression analysis was applied to estimate RSI values at different heights of DSI values obtained from the research group. According to correlation analysis; It was determined that the RSI value obtained from the 50 cm jump height showed the highest correlation with other heights. The Kruskall Wallis H test, RSI values obtained from different jump heights do not show a statistically significant difference compared to DSI index criteria (p>.05). The regression analysis, it was revealed that there was a moderate and significant relationship between RSI values at different heights and DSI value (R=0.516, R2=0.466, p>0.05). It can be said that the application of RSI values at higher jump heights in wrestlers increases the correlation coefficient with the DSI values, and the 70 cm jump height is determinant in revealing the explosive force.
