  Study Objectives: Considering that both physical and psychological effects of nutrition and exercise are important on students, this study aimed to evaluate the nutritional knowledge levels and exercise status of the students of the faculty of sports sciences. Methods: 199 students, 146 (73.4%) male, and 53 (26.6%) female, studying at Sivas Cumhuriyet University Faculty of Sport Sciences participated in the study. The scale consists of 20 items on the “Basic nutrition and food-health relationship” scale, and 12 items on the “Food preference” scale. One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and independent t-test were used because the data showed normal distribution. Pearson Correlation test was used to determine the relationship between the nutritional knowledge levels of the individuals participating in the study and the age and bodyweight groups. Results: There was no significant finding when the total points of basic nutrition and food preference were compared according to the regular exercise status of the participants (p>0.05). A significant finding was found when the total scores of basic nutrition and food preference were compared according to the participants’ status of taking nutrition lessons at their schools (p<0.05). Conclusion: In the study, it was revealed that the nutritional knowledge level of the students of the faculty of sports sciences who received nutrition education was sufficient. When the status of doing regular sports is evaluated, it has been revealed that there is no difference between the students who do sports and those who do not, and they have similar nutritional knowledge levels.

  Effect of different warm up protocols (deep feelings, massage, dynamic traction) on different levels of blood lactate and anaerobic power of athlete students

  Sajedi, Heidar; Bas, Mustafa; Aydın, Elif

  The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of different warm-up protocols (deep feelings, massage, dynamic traction) on different levels of blood lactate and anaerobic power of athlete students. The present study was quasi-experimental, with pre and post-test design and a control group and also three experimental groups. After announcing, 36 students who have had at least three years of professional sports experience were chosen among qualified students and they were set randomly in four groups of deep feelings, massage, dynamic traction, and control. Wingate test was used to measure anaerobic power. The 894E Monark performed the test Ergo medic as a Wingate test. The blood lactate of the participants of each group were measured in separate sessions using the German Scott Lactometer (using hand blood sample). We used two methods of petrissage and testament in the massage group. In the deep feelings group, the 11+ protocol designed by FIFA to improve performance and prevent player injury was used to warm up and five major muscles (Quadriceps femoris muscle, Hamstring, Hip flexor muscle, Hip Extensor muscle, Ankle Extensor) were stretched. The results show that there was a significant difference between the results of an anaerobic power test and blood lactate in those four groups. Based on the Tuki test and attention to the mean of post-test records compared to the pre-test, the two groups of dynamic traction and deep feelings compared to the control group had significantly welled performance in anaerobic power and blood lactate (P<0/05) and there was no significant difference in the massage group compared to the control group (P>0/05). As a result, it can be said that all three methods of warming up including dynamic traction, massage, deep feelings improve the performance of the participants in the anaerobic power and blood lactate test compared to the control group and performing the students of deep feelings and dynamic traction group in terms of anaerobic power and blood lactate is better than massage group.

  Cebi, Mehmet; Ceviker, Abdulkerim; Ozlu, Kurtulus; Elioz, Murat; Yamak, Bade; Kusan, Osman; Agaoglu, Seydi Ahmet; Dogan, Erol; Ceylan, Levent

  Study Objectives: In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the relationship between vitamin D and lipid profiles of athletes playing football professionally during the season and some metabolic parameters and maximal rate. Methods: 52 male elite soccer players performing in Super League, TFF 2nd League, and TFF 3rd League whose mean age 22.86±3.55 years, participated in our study. The sport age of the soccer players was 12.2±1.70 years. The participants attended in at least five 80-minute training periods and performed at least one official competition weekly (through 11 months). In November, blood samplings of the athletes and other parameters were obtained between 09:00 and 10:00 a. m. leading a 12-hour fasting period. The Maximal Aerobic Speed (MAS) measurement developed by Buchheit (2008) to evaluate aerobic power and capacity was used to carry out the study. In order to determine the relationship between the variables of individuals, Pearson Correlation Test was used as the data showed normal distribution. Results: Albumin, Alp, Alt, Ast, B12 vitamin, Ca, Phosphorus, Creatinine, Mg, Free T3, Sodium, Tsh, Ferritin, Folic Acid, Potassium Triglyceride, Glucose, Total Cholesterol, and Free T4 values were found within normal limits. It can be said that athletes had low vitamin D values. It was observed that the participants had low LDL cholesterol values. Variables don’t have any significant effects on running time, peak velocity, true vift and VO2max of biochemical parameters (p>0,05). Conclusion: As a result, it can be concluded that despite the positive relationship between the maximal aerobic velocity test parameters of the footballers and their pre-test biochemical results, it wasn’t statistically a meaningful relationship.

  Acute effects of reverse kinesio taping on anaerobic performance in healthy subjects: A pilot study

  Doğan, Erol; Erail, Serhat; Mayda, Muhammet Hakan; Yılmaz, Coşkun; Karaduman, Emre; Yılmaz, Ali Kerim; Bayram, Levent; Keskin, Deniz Özge Yüceloğlu; Ermiş, Egemen

  Study Objectives: This study aimed to determine whether the Kinesio tape (KT) application through reverse taping on the quadriceps (Q) and hamstring (H) muscles have any effect on anaerobic power (AP). Methods: Sixteen healthy males were included in the study voluntarily. Muscle facilitation and muscle inhibition techniques were performed on the Q and H muscles of both the right and left sides by applying KT in the reverse direction, and AP parameters were measured using a Wingate ergometer. In trial 1 (Baseline), KT was not applied to the participants. In trial 2 (KT), the muscle facilitation technique was applied on the vastus medialis muscle in the Q of both legs, and the muscle inhibition technique was applied on the biceps femoris and semimembranosus muscles in the H, and AP performances of the participants were taken. The SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Paired sample t-test was used to analyze the differences between trials. Results: KT gave higher values than Baseline with regards to peak power, relative peak power, average power, and relative average power (p < 0.05). In addition, as a result of the KT application, there were minor improvements in minimum power, relative minimum peak power, power drop, and peak power %. However, these differences were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Conclusions: It was observed that KT applied in the reverse direction on the Q and H muscle groups had a positive effect on AP. It was considered that this effect associated with the reverse KT application stemmed from the different tensions that decreased the neuronal threshold, which in turn ensured faster and easier stimulation of motor units and increased the muscle reflex, leading to a positive effect on AP.

  Özcan, Handan; Elkoca, Ayşe; Şahan, Özlem; Yilmaz, Sibel; Erişen, Begüm

  Study Objectives: This planned research aimed to identify the conditions for women’s health in women who prefer vegan diets. Method: The study consists of vegan women and the sample consists of a total of 150 women who agreed to participate in the study. The data was collected through a questionnaire consisting of 34 questions. Associations and vegan women were reached out via social media. Results: The average age of the participants was 28.96±8.50 and 33.3% were married. The average year in which women continue to eat vegan is 3.29±5.25. 62% of vegan women stated that their menstrual periods were painless, 87.3% stated that their menstrual periods were regular, and 75.3% stated that they did not have any gynecological diseases. The most common complaints in vegan women are stress and anxiety (27.1%), continuous discharge (27.1), depression (25), polycystic ovary syndrome (20.8), urinary tract infection (20.8), and fibroids (12.5). 18% of vegan women had been diagnosed with anemia, of which 18.8% used anemia treatment. Conclusion: It was found that vegan women did not have many complaints in terms of gynecology while existing complaints were similar or even lower in terms of disease rates seen in the total population. The study group’s high level of education and awareness and regular health checkups are among the factors affecting the results. The low vegan diet averages of the women covered in the study and the fact that a greater number of women were out of reach show the limitations of the study.

  Kartal, Fatma; Rakicioglu, Neslisah

  Purpose: The present study was aimed to define the quantities and types of foods consumed by adolescents during use of media tools to evaluate the contribution of energy and nutrient intake during the use of media tools to daily energy and nutrient intake. Methods: A total of 73 adolescents who visits an internet cafe, were included in the study. Participants were evaluated when they were using a computer in an internet cafe, food consumptions during the use of media tools and daily consumption and physical activity level were recorded. Results: It has been found that consumption of cakes, pastries and cookies during the use of media tools constitute more than half of daily consumption. At the same time, consumption of oily seeds, consumption of sweet foods and saturated fat consumption during the use of media tools were contributed to the daily consumption significantly. It was found that, adolescents consumed less egg, legumes, milk and dairy products, and vegetables in front of the media tools (p<0.05). A significant correlation was observed between the energy and fat content of foods consumed in front of media tools, and obesity. Also, time spend in the internet cafe are increasing as the energy intake during the use of the media tools increases (p<0.05). Conclusion: Consequently it is necessary to reduce the time spend in front of media tools and regulate the consumed foods during the use of media tools to live a healthier life and reduce the risks of development chronic disease in the future lives.
