Brief Summary

The study will include national wrestlers studying at Kırşehir Ahi Evran University School of Physical Education and Sports who meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate. Individuals who agree to participate will be evaluated on their grip strength, hand reaction times, balance, core muscle endurance, vertical jumps, dynamic (Y-balance test), and static balance.

Conditions

PERFORMANCE; VERTICAL JUMP PERFORMANCE

Keywords

VERTICAL JUMP; CORE ENDURANCE; GRIP STRENGTH; BALANCE

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Mean vertical jump height

  Vertical jump performance will be assessed under standardized testing conditions. Each participant will perform three maximal vertical jump trials. Jump height will be recorded in centimeters, and the mean of the three trials will be used as the primary outcome measure. Higher values indicate better vertical jump performance.

  During the single assessment session
