Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the effects of exercises done by drinking water and not drinking water during resistance training on hemogram (leukocyte, erythrocyte, and thrombocyte). 10 male university students aged between 20 and 23 participated in the study. The participants did five different resistance exercises (3 sets 8 RM) previously determined. During the training program, they did resistance exercises by not consuming water in the first week and consuming water in the second week. (Pre-exercise and exercise days routine food and fluid intake was maintained, fluid intake restriction was applied only during exercise) The participants’ Hemogram (Erythrocyte, Leukocyte and Thrombocyte) measurements were made before and after the exercise. The obtained data were tested at p<0.05 significance level. A significant decrease in Lymph% and a significant decrease in p<0.02 in Gran% were found among exercise pre-test post-test values by taking water from sub leukocyte subgroups. A significant decrease in RBC p<0.01 and a significant decrease in HGB and HCT values of p<0.02 were observed between exercise pre-test post-test values without water intake and water intake of erythrocyte subgroups of the same resistance exercise. A significant decrease in p <0.00 was also found between the exercise pre-test post-test values of the same subgroups (RBC, HGB, HCT). A significant reduction in PDW% value of p<0.04 was observed between the exercise pre-test post-test values of the same resistance exercise without water intake and without taking water from platelet subgroups of the same resistance exercise. No statistically significant change was detected in the parameter values in the other subgroups. The exercise done without water intake; a significant difference was found in the parameters of Thrombocyte and Erythrocyte. However, no statistically significant difference was found in the parameters of Leukocyte. The exercise done with water intake; a significant difference was found in the parameters of Leukocyte and Erythrocyte. However, no statistically significant difference was found in the parameters of Thrombocyte.
