Summary

The aim of this study is to analyse the alterations in the physical, physiological, and performance characteristics of the elite Greco-Roman wrestlers who experienced a prolonged period of detraining (14 weeks) as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Elite Greco-Roman wrestlers volunteered for the research. Heart rate variability values were measured during the detraining period and for 8 weeks of subsequent training, and then interpreted for training periods with different workloads. Body fat percentage measured during detraining and every 2-week interval during the training period. To determine the fitness status of wrestlers, the Specific Wrestling Fitness test was used before and following the 8-week training period.

Training

During the detraining period, the athletes did not follow any external (personal) trainer-supported training program and their diet was not altered. Athletes have reported that they have stayed at home as a necessity of the Covid-19 pandemic process, and have done simple home exercises, walking and jogging exercises in a limited way during this time. The training period included the standard wrestling trainings, which were determined by the national team coaches and realized at different intensities, during the 8 weeks when the training started. Following the period of detraining the level of training intensity was progressively increased throughout the initial 5 weeks. In the 6th and 7th week, training intensity peaked . In the 8th week prior to the competition, the training intensity was reduced in order to prepare and recover for the following competition. After the training period, the wrestlers participated in an international competition.
