Research in Sport Medicine and Technology

Anaerobic capacity of the upper body is one of the special needs of wrestling athletes, which is measured in laboratory conditions by the Wingate hand test, but specialized field tests to measure this index are limited. Accordingly, in this research, an attempt was made to design a special field test to It should be used to measure the anaerobic power of the upper body of wrestlers. In this research, 20 wrestlers with an average age of 17.80 ± 2.50 years, height 172.90 ± 7.04 cm, weight 66.09 ± 13.03 kg, and body mass index 22.20 ± 2.76 kg/m2 Kurdistan province team members with national and international championship history and those without championship history were present. The movement in the hanging position was used at maximum speed.After performing the Wingate test and the designed test, the maximum, average and minimum anaerobic power and the fatigue index were calculated by the respective formulas, also the heart rate was measured immediately and the lactate level 2 minutes after the execution of the tests. Therefore, the designed test was based on the test Wingate upper body has acceptable validity, reliability and objectivity and is recommended as a valid and special test to measure the anaerobic power of the upper body of wrestlers
