ABSTRACT
The aim of this study is to compare the circulation parameters and some motoric
adaptations of futsal athletes aged 15-17 and sedentary individuals. For this purpose, an
athlete and a sedentary group was formed and a total of 30 volunteers were included in the
study. Individuals were included among futsal athletes and individuals who participated in
futsal auditions. Saturation, heart rate and blood pressure values were recorded in order to
examine the circulation parameters from all individuals. As a result, a high rate of change
was not observed in the circulation values of sedentary and futsal athletes. As a result of
regular training, an increase in performance was observed on motoric characteristics. It
can be concluded that individuals can improve their motoric features and increase their
performance by doing sports.
Keywords: Training; Futsal; adaptation; sedentary.

RESUMEN
El objetivo de este estudio es comparar los parámetros circulatorios y algunas adaptaciones
motoras de deportistas de fútbol sala de 15 a 17 años e individuos sedentarios. Para ello se
formó un grupo de deportistas y otro de sedentarios y se incluyeron en el estudio un total
de 30 voluntarios. Las personas se incluyeron entre los atletas de fútbol sala y las personas
que participaron en las audiciones de fútbol sala. Se registraron los valores de saturación,
frecuencia cardíaca y presión arterial para examinar los parámetros de circulación de todos
los individuos. Como resultado, no se observó una alta tasa de cambio en los valores de
circulación de los atletas sedentarios y de fútbol sala. Como resultado del entrenamiento
regular, se observó un aumento en el rendimiento de las características motoras. Se puede
concluir que los individuos pueden mejorar sus características motrices y aumentar su
rendimiento haciendo deporte.
Palabras clave: Entrenamiento; Fútbol Sala; adaptación; sedentarismo.
INTRODUCTION
Futsal is a team sport that includes intermittent and high-intensity physical activities played with
feature forces futsal players to improve their ability to play faster by keeping the ball in play all the
time (Farhani et al., 2022). This situation requires players to have the ability to make quick decisions
under pressure in attack and defense, to be more mobile and faster, and to change direction suddenly
sports. For this reason, countries always aim for the best grade in the international sports competitions
they participate in. Sports people know that in order to get the best results in sports competitions, it
include very long and tiring exercises. Countries are in constant struggle in both technological and
sportive competitions (Yaman and Özpak, 2021).
2011). Futsal players show a sprint performance at maximal speed every 79 seconds (Castagna et al.,
2009; Castagna et al., 2006). During the match, sprint performances are performed by the players
players need to perform short-term sprints with 20-30 second rest intervals in order to be successful
in critical moments of the game (Alvarez et al., 2009). Therefore, in futsal, as in other team sports, it
is very important for the athlete to run this distance more than once at maximum speed, rather than to
endurance. Thanks to the increase in intramuscular coordination resulting from high loading intensity,
or an increase in the athlete's weight. This is important in all sports where explosive force plays an
important role (Nabo et al., 2021).
Based on the information explained above, it is aimed to compare the circulatory and some motoric
characteristics of athletes who play futsal actively in sports clubs and sedentary individuals with non-
athletes in the same age group and to examine their adaptations.

MATERIAL AND METHODS
Study Design
A total of 30 individuals between the ages of 15-17 participated in the study voluntarily. Subjects and
their families were informed about the tests. Individuals participating in the research were selected
among active futsal athletes (n:15). The sedentary group (n:15) was determined in the individuals
who did not actively do sports and participated in the futsal auditions. The descriptive data of the
individuals participating in the study are presented in tables. Circulation parameters and some motoric
features of all individuals were measured and recorded. Horizontal jump test (Sahan, 2003), 20 meters
speed test, vertical jump test (Pancar et al. 2018), 30 seconds push-ups, 30 seconds sit-up test (Klnç,
2008) was taken. Participants and their parents were informed about the study. Voluntary participation
and parental consent were obtained. Necessary permissions were obtained from Gaziantep University
Clinical Researches Local Ethics Committee for this study (2022/228).
Statistical Analysis
SPSS 21.0 statistical program was used in the analysis of the data obtained in the study. Descriptive
statistics of the groups were made. Normality analysis of the data was performed. Independent
Samples t-Test was used to evaluate two independent groups because of the normal distribution of
the data. The obtained values are presented in tables.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Statistical analyzis of the data belonging to the study are presented in tables. First, the descriptive data
of the groups were included.

In this study, circulatory and motoric characteristics of futsal athletes and sedentary individuals were
athletes.
Pulmonary and cardiovascular capacity can be increased with training (Astrand and Rodahl, 1986).
In our study, it was determined that the circulation parameters of the futsal group changed compared
examined, it was found that the resting heart rate values of the handball athletes decreased compared
to the children who did not do sports (Kürkçü and Gökhan, 2011). It was also revealed by some
researchers that the resting heart rate decreased with regular training. Again, in the studies conducted
on athletes, it was stated that the heart rate was in the direction of decrease in groups doing sports.
Researchers attribute the reason for this low heart rate to the increase in heart volume caused by long-
term and hard training (Astrand and Rodahl, 1986).
Futsal branch consists of more intense struggle phases when compared to other sports. It is a sports
branch that includes a lot of sprint runs (Alvarez et al., 2009). The fact that futsal is a high-intensity
sport emerges when compared to other sports branches. It has been reported that the total distance of
high-intensity running at maximum speed is greater than football, basketball, and handball (Bangsbo

that require high performance, the ability of the athlete to adapt to this situation physiologically and
physically is considered as anaerobic power. In this process, the force exerted by the lower extremity,
such as jumping vertically and horizontally, is the explosive force ability (Muratli et al., 2007).
such as vertical jump, standing long jump sit-ups and push-ups. When other studies were examined,
it was stated that vertical jump and anaerobic power values were high (Bogdanis et al., 2007). We
think that these high values may vary depending on age, athlete's year and professionalism. A football
player or futsal athlete has to be fast while running, changing direction, attacking and defending
throughout the match. Power is an important element, especially in sports that require speed and
explosiveness (Farhani et al., 2022).
In our study, it was found that sprint performance, one of the motoric features, was higher in futsal
athletes. We can say that this development has developed depending on the characteristics required
by the sports branch. Futsal covers intense running areas and the development of this feature is
considered important for combat. When the studies were examined, it was stated that the speed and
(Yaman and Özpak, 2021). There are also studies showing that speed development is better in league
and anaerobic endurance was examined. It has been stated that there has been an improvement in the
CONCLUSION
As a result, in this study, we can say that the motoric features of futsal athletes are at an improved
level compared to sedentary individuals in the same age group. The motoric skills of children who are
directed to training or sports at an early age will be at a good level, considering their developmental
processes. In addition, the circulation parameters will adapt to the training and the oxygenation
processes will improve.
