“…In the study on comparison of breathing functions of young team sportsmen from individual sports branches, Atan, Akyol, and Çebi (2013) found that breathing function of professional sportsmen was higher than others. They also found that different breathing functions of sportsmen from different branches might mean that the branch of sports involved statistically affected the overall breathing capacity of the sportsmen.…”

This study aims to determine and compare some physical and physiological parameters of elite long-distance runners and cross-country skiers. The research group consists of 17 male and 13 female athletic long-distance runners and 14 male and 11 female cross-country skiers, all of who are living in Ağrı and are at international level.Wingate test standardizing method and materials were used to measure weight and height to make body composition analysis, breathing function tests, flexibility tests, and to determine anaerobic capacity of the subjects who participated in the research. Statistical evaluation was performed using Statistics Package for Social Science, Version 22.0 (SPSS 22.0) package program. Considering the small number of subjects in the study group (N < 30), Mann Whitney U test, which is mainly used for non-parametric data, was used to determine differences between variables. It has been understood that anaerobic capacities and flexibility values of athletes who participated in the study group did not differ significantly (p > 0.05). Although there were no significant differences between breathing parameters (p > 0.05) in general, there was a significant difference between the breathing values forced expiratory volume 1.0/ forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) of female athletes and female cross-country skiers (p < 0.05). Body composition values of the athletes did not display any significant differences (p > 0.05). However, it was understood that there was significant differences on fat weight (FW) and total body water percentage (TBW [%]) values between athletes and female cross-country skiers (p < 0.05). Gripping power of male athletes and cross-country skiers displayed statistically significant differences for right hand and left hand gripping power (p < 0.05), yet it was understood that gripping power of female athletes and cross-country skiers did not differ significantly between their right hands and left hands (p > 0.05). As a result of the study, following the comparison of physical and physiological parameters of male and female athletes and cross-country skiers, FEV1/FVC among breathing parameters and FW and TBW(%) among body composition values displayed significant differences, and right hand and left hand gripping power of male athletes also displayed significant differences. In this context, it might be concluded that there are not many differences between similar branches of sports (long-distance running, individual sports, etc.) which utilize same energy systems in the body.

“…In previously performed similar studies, it is stated that the increase in FVC and FEV 1 values of male children aged 12-14 who do regular exercise is significant compared to the pre-training period [35], FVC values in young females aged 16 are higher in the athletes doing athletics compared to the control group [20], VC, FVC, FEV 1 and MVV values of female students aged between 11 and 14 playing volleyball are higher than those not doing sports [26], the FVC, FEV1, MVV ratio were higher in athletes than in the normal sedentary control individuals [4,15,29,40], the PEF and FEF 25/75 values of the training program applied for 3 months on the sedentary children in the age group of 10-16 are significant compared to the pre-training period [37] and in similar studies performed on children athletes in different branches, it is stated that PEF and FEF 25/75 values significantly differ after the exercise [3,9].…”

“…The fact that control group does not exist in many of the researches performed to determine to what extent sports affects the respiratory parameters of children and youth and a complete standardization has not been established in terms of respiratory functions yet may cause different opinions in this topic. While some researchers advocate that intense physical exercises increase the respiratory parameters [4,11,23,24,33,34,42], some others state that this development is in parallel with the normal growth totally as the dynamic of age group [7,12]. Some other researchers suggest that exercise does not increase respiratory parameters, but also brings them to an efficient and economic condition [3].…”

A total of 60 female students voluntarily participated in this study in which the exercise-dependent changes in the respiratory functions of female students in the age group of 12-16 who participate in basketball training sessions of summer sports school are analysed. 30 female students participated in summer sports school basketball training group constituted the experimental group and 30 female students in the same age group who did not participate in basketball training formed the control group. The experimental group was applied an interval training program specific to basketball 5 days a week in 12 weeks. The control group was not applied any training program at all. Some physical measurements (age, height, weight) and spirometry measurements (FVC, FVC%, FEV 1 , FEV 1 %, FEV 1 /FVC%, PEF, PEF%, FEF 25/75 , FEF 25/75 %) were recorded as preliminary and post-tests in the research. Paired Simple t-test and Wilcoxon were used in intra-group analyses of data obtained and Mann-Whitney U test was used for the intergroup comparisons. While significant difference can be established in the height, FVC, FVC%, FEV 1 , FEV 1 % and FEV 1 /FVC% values of experimental group and height values of the control group compared to the time before the training; height, weight, FVC, FVC%, FEV 1 , PEF, FEF 25/75 and FEV 1 /FVC% values of the experimental group have significantly differed from the control group. In conclusion, it can be stated that interval training programs specific to basketball and applied to the female students in summer sports school have positive effects on the respiratory functions and they can contribute to both physical and lung development of individuals.

“…When observations in the respiratory phase are evaluated, two or more parameters of lung volume capacities should be evaluated together (Çakmakçı et al, 2005). In our study, the respiratory parameters that we found to be meaningful were forced vital capacity (FVC) while the other was the maximal respiratory gas volume (FEV 1 ) (Atan et al, 2013). In literature, studies in this area are usually limited to pre-exercise and immediate after measures.…”

The aim of the study was to determine the changes in blood hormone and respiratory parameters in recovery phases. 28 voluntary men participated in the study, with an average age of 19.75±1.61 years and playing active football during the league season. Wingate Anaerobic Power Test and Respiratory Function Test (RFT) were applied to the subjects who were randomly divided into two groups, active and passive group. Blood samples were collected from and RFT was applied to all subjects before and after the test. Cortisol hormone, Partial Oxygen Pressure (PO2), Partial Carbon Dioxide Pressure (PCO2), lactic acid (LA) values were obtanied with datas taken from blood samples. The forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume (FEV1), and rate of 1. Second of forced expiratory volume to the forced vital capacity (FEV1 / FVC) were measured by the PFT test. SPSS 24.0 program was used for statistical evaluation of the data. As a result; both 5-minute active and passive recovery methods did not reduce the cortisol ratio, but continued to increase in minute increments. In terms of PO 2 , passive recovery was found to be a more effective method than active recovery. 5 minutes of active and passive recovery did not reduce LA level and did not affect each other significantly. FVC and FEV 1 values were found to be higher in the active recovery group than in the passive recovery group at the onset of AT recovery. Active recovery was found to have positive effects on vital capacity FVC and FEV 1 .
