Abstract
The aim of this study is to evaluate the body composition, physical and physiological parameters of the functional (cross fit, HIIT) exercises applied at the beginning of the preparatory season and at the end of the preparatory season, and to determine the physical and physiological parameters that occur in female footballers during the preparatory season. The average age of the study was 22.25 ± 3.8 years, average height; 166.36 ± 8.14 cm and a weight average 2018-2019 season in Turkey with 54.44 ± 3.24 kg Football Federation Women 1st league's elite players and 20 female volunteers participated in the play. Statistical analysis of the data obtained as a result of the measurements was made using the SPSS 25.00 for Windows package program. Arithmetic means, standard deviations, and differences between the averages of the data obtained after the measurements were found. In order to compare the data obtained after the measurements of the subjects participating in the study with each other and to determine the significance levels of the differences between the averages, they were analyzed at the level of 0.05 significance using “Paired Samples T Test”. As a result, in the light of the data obtained, it was determined that there were statistically significant differences in many parameters that were generally measured, except BMI values. It is believed that functional training, which is one of the determinants of performance, is due to the effect of female footballers on body composition and some physical parameters, and it is important to pay attention to functional training in regularly planned and created training contents.
Keywords: Elite female football players, physical, physiological, functional training.
