Abstract

Introduction:Wrestling, as a heavy activity, increases the production of free radicals and the levels of hormones and leads to a decrease or increase in the level of some hormones compared to the resting state, and it is also effective on the body's defense and immune system. method: Thirty-six wrestlers based on physical characteristics such as: height, age, fat percentage, level of physical fitness (optimal performance of techniques in a suitable time and quality with an understanding of pressure close to other subjects), wrestling history, body mass index and weight selected and were placed in two groups of subject: normal training of wrestling of (WT) and Tabata protocol of wrestling (TT) for a period of 6 weeks. The unstimulated saliva samples were taken in four times, before training in a resting state, immediately after training six weeks later, to measure total antioxidant responses (TAC), testosterone (T), cortisol (C), and salivary IgA. The data were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk statistical test to the normality of the data and analysis of variance (ANOVA) in repeated measurements and Friedman's non-parametric test, Bonferroni's post hoc test at a significance level of α < 0.05 by SPSS version 24. Results Six weeks of Tabata wrestling training had a significant effect on the ratio of testosterone to salivary cortisol, TAC and salivary IgA, and the perception of level in male freestyle wrestlers (P < 0.05). Conclusion: It seems that 6 weeks of Tabata wrestling can cause improvement of antioxidant, hormonal and immune indicators and perceived of exertion.
