Abstract
In this study, the effects of 8-week swimming training applied to swimmers aged 19-25 on bone alkaline phosphatase (bALP), magnesium, calcium, Unsaturated Iron Binding Capacity (UIBC), iron and ferritin parameters were investigated. Mean age of 23.12±5.46 years, 12 swimmers participated in the study. A swimming training program was applied to the participants for 8 weeks/3 days. All tests and measurements were performed before starting the 8-week training program and after the program was completed. The data obtained from the study were analyzed using the SPSS 15.0 package program. The normality distribution of the data was made with the shapiro-wilk test, and the pre-post-test measurements of the participants were analyzed with the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. According to the results of the data, it was determined that there was a statistically significant difference between the metabolic rate, iron, UIBC pre-post test data. (p<0.05). As a result, it can be said that the 8-week swimming training program, which is applied regularly, can positively affect performance with the changes in bone mineral metabolism. Keywords: Ferritin, alkaline phosphatase, calcium, magnesium, metabolic rate
