Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between sport climbers, anaerobic power and upper extremity strength parameters and competition performance. A total of 52 volunteer athletes, 31 male and 21 female, participated in the study in the "Leader Climbing" discipline in the sport climbing competition. Before the competition, finger strength (FS), hand grip strength (HGS), back strength (BS) and medicine ball throwing (MBT) tests were performed to measure the upper extremity strength of the athletes, and the vertical jump test (VJT) was performed for the measurement of anaerobic power. The results of the competition were collected and the relationship between the measurements taken and the scoring was analyzed with the SPSS (ver.23.0) program. According to the correlation analysis between competition performances, anaerobic power and upper extremity strength measurements, in women; relative hand grip strength right (RHGSright), relative hand grip strength left (RHGSleft), relative fingertip grip right (RFTGright), relative fingertip grip left (RFTGleft), relative palmar grip strength right (RPGSright), relative palmar grip strength left (RPGSleft), relative back strength (RBS) values in males; A significant positive correlation was found between the competition scores and the values of HGSright, RHGSright, HGSleft, RHGSleft, RFTGleft, RPGSright, palmar grip strenght right (PGSright), RPGSleft, PGSleft, RBS values (p<0.05). In conclusion; significant relationships were found between upper extremity strength values and the result of the competition, but they could not be detected in anaerobic power measurement. It has been determined that upper extremity strength is a determinant in the performance of athletes.
