Is there a significant correlation between maximal concentric isokinetic trunk torque/power values and dynamic postural stability variables in elite wrestlers? How do the agonist/antagonist (flexion/extension) ratios and core strength profiles of elite wrestlers differ from those of a sedentary control group.
Comparison Group: Researchers will compare elite wrestlers (with at least 5 years of professional experience) to a healthy sedentary control group to see if professional wrestling training leads to superior trunk muscle integration and enhanced dynamic balance control.Participants will:Complete a demographic data form and a health screening to ensure they meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria (e.g., no history of spinal surgery or acute back pain).Perform a standardized warm-up session on a cycle ergometer at 55-60 rpm.Undergo dynamic postural stability testing to measure balance control and center of gravity displacement.Perform isokinetic trunk strength testing (flexion and extension) to measure peak torque, total work, and power values relative to body weight (PT/BW).
Read the detailed description
Sport is defined as an activity that involves the performance of high-level physical activities while simultaneously maintaining static and dynamic balance. For athletes to perform sport-specific movements effectively, they must possess a high level of physical fitness and develop various factors that determine performance. Balance is defined as the ability to maintain the body's center of gravity within the limits of support, while static balance is expressed as the ability to sustain the base of support with minimum movement. Maintaining postural balance is considered a fundamental requirement for the effective and efficient execution of many sporting activities.
The core muscles consist of 29 pairs of muscle groups that support the lumbo-pelvic-hip complex, contributing to the stabilization of the pelvis, vertebrae, and the kinetic chain. Defined as the center of the functional kinetic chain, the core region resembles a cylindrical structure formed by the paravertebral and gluteal muscles posteriorly, abdominal muscles anteriorly, the diaphragm superiorly, and the pelvic floor and hip girdle muscles inferiorly. The coordinated contraction of these muscles provides maximum stability in the proximal region, enabling optimal controlled and effective movement in the distal region. In this context, isokinetic testing of trunk flexor and extensor muscle strength is used as one of the standard measurement methods for evaluating core stability in clinical sports medicine and allows for the objective assessment of athletes' muscle strength capacity. Isokinetic measurement possesses high reliability and sensitivity and is frequently preferred in dynamic force analyses to determine the mechanical profile of trunk muscles.
Core stability is the capacity of the lumbo-pelvic-hip complex to prevent instability in the spine and return to a state of equilibrium following a perturbation. According to the results of previous research and review studies, core strength, core endurance, and the lumbo-pelvic muscle control structure together constitute core stabilization. Some studies have shown that decreased strength in the core muscles increases body sway and may impair body balance, and that balance ability is associated with active arm swing, core stabilization, and trunk muscle endurance. Wrestlers require highly developed abdominal and spinal muscle strength capacities to compensate for sport-specific loads. Although it is known that wrestlers possess high absolute trunk extensor strength, the sudden explosive attacks and high balance requirements during a match make not only the strength of the trunk muscles but also the integration of this strength with postural stability critical. One study reported that extensor muscle strength for weightlifters and wrestlers was higher compared to the sedentary population, yet similar values were found between groups regarding flexor muscle strength. Despite this, there remains a significant gap in the literature regarding the interpretation of spinal isokinetic variables in relation to performance and postural stability.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
ısokinetic trunk muscle strengthOther
runk flexion and extension muscle strength measurements will be performed using the Cybex NORM computerized isokinetic dynamometer which is considered the gold standard for muscle strength assessment. During the measurement, participants will be positioned standing on the device; support pads will be used to stabilize the lower extremities, and stabilization belts will be fastened to fix the pelvis and minimize the involvement of the hip flexors. Strength assessment will consist of trunk flexion-extension movements involving 5 repetitions at an angular velocity of 60°/s, while the endurance test will be conducted with 15 repetitions at 90°/s. This protocol was selected based on previous studies in the literature. A 20-second rest interval will be provided between repetitions. The following parameters obtained under isokinetic conditions will be analyzed: peak torque, peak torque normalized to body weight, total work, and total work normalized to body weight.
Postural StabilityOther
Postural stability measurements will be performed using the Biodex Balance System SD (Biodex Medical Systems, Inc., Shirley, NY, USA), which is a computer-assisted balance assessment system with a multi-axial moving platform. The device objectively evaluates both static and dynamic postural stability. The postural stability assessment will involve both double-leg and single-leg measurements. During the test, all participants will be required to stand barefoot with their arms parallel to their bodies and eyes open, first on a single leg and then on both legs. At the beginning of the trial, participants will be instructed to maintain their balance throughout the test duration. The same procedure will consist of three 20-second repetitions for each extremity, with 10-second rest intervals between repetitions. The balance system will evaluate and record the Overall Stability Index (OSI), Anterior-Posterior Stability Index (APSI), and Medial-Lateral Stability Index (MLSI) for each part

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Postural Stability and Trunk Muscle Strength, run by Biruni University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Isokinetic muscle strength (time frame: Enrollment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07452328, which also lists 13 linked publications.
