Abstract

Five cardiovascular tests were conducted at monthly intervals on varying numbers of Central Washington State College Wrestlers during the 1971-1972 season.

Results showed the wrestling group to be no different from a criterion population at the outset, but many significant differences were noted at subsequent test periods between wrestlers and the criterion population. No systematic association was found between percentage of weight loss and cardiovascular performance during the competitive season. A logical explanation for such lack of association was postulated.
