The monitoring of weight fluctuation and hydration status in cadet wrestlers (ages 14-17) during a training camp period leading up to competition
(Aufzeichnung der Veränderungen des Körpergewichts und des Hydrationsstatus von Ringern im Kadettenalter (14-17 Jahre) während eines Trainingslagers vor einem Wettkampf)
This study aims to determine the body weight and hydration levels of wrestlers within the cadet super league and to investigate their affects upon performance. Measurements were recorded four times: on the first day of training, which is 17 days prior to competition, three days out from weigh ins, immediately prior to weigh-in and immediately before the competition. During these study periods, body weight and urine specific gravity (Usg) were measured. Body composition was measured in the first round of testing. Results of these measurements were compared to competition results. Body weight and hydration levels did not change significantly until the third day before weigh in (P> 0.05). A significant level of weight loss (% 3.9 ± 2, 7) and an increase in Usg levels (1.024-1.028 g/cm³) were discovered in the last three days before official weigh-ins. However, no significant change in Usg values (P> 0.05) were observed between weigh in and the competition, although a significant weight gain (P< 0.05) was observed. Consequently, it can be shown that although the rapid weight loss and dehydration observed in cadet wrestlers just prior to weigh-ins was followed by a rapid weight gain between weigh-ins and the competition; there was no improvement in the hydration status.
