Abstract
Introduction and purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of participation in eight weeks of the double-pyramid resistance training and the pyramid speed training on selected physical and physiological factors of male young freestyle-wrestling elites.
Materials and methods: Thirty young elite freestyle wrestlers were randomly selected and divided in three groups of resistance training (double-pyramidal form), the speed training (pyramidal form) and, the control group. The exercise groups of resistance and speed each took part in their specialized training program for 8 weeks with 3 sessions per week. Data was analyzed using Multivariate Analysis of Covariance (MANCOVA) and the Sidak Post-Hoc Test in SPSS v.0.21 (P<0.05).
Results: The results showed that the increase in the factors of body weight, body mass index, body fat mass, lower body muscle strength, peak power, and average power in the double pyramid group was significantly higher than the control group and the speed pyramid group (P<0.05), on the other hand, the improvement of 30m sprint time, 400m test time, and speed drop factors were significantly higher in the speed pyramid group compared to the control group and the resistance group. (P<0.05). Also, other findings of this test revealed that the improvement of lower body muscle endurance and flexibility was significantly higher in both groups compared to the control group (P<0.05).
Discussion and Conclusion: According to the findings of the research, it can be said that wrestling coaches can use double pyramid resistance exercises to improve muscle strength and pyramid speed exercises to improve the body speed of freestyle wrestlers.
