Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was to observe effect of the percentage body fat on muscular endurance of junior free style wrestlers according to their weight categories. Method: one hundred fifty (N=150) male junior free style wrestlers were participated as subjects and they were further divided into five groups according to their weight categories, each group was comprised of thirty wrestlers. Body fat percentage was estimated by usi ng Durnin and Womersley equation, In Push up test, recorded the number of push-ups performed in 1 minute. Results: Percentage body fat was found negative relationship with muscular endurance . Conclusion: it is concluded that the free style wrestling is a weight classified sport; there fo the correlation of body composition of the wrestlers with muscular endurance is important. The results of the present study also demonstrated the effect of age, height, weight, BF % on the musc ular endurance of junior free style wrestlers.
