Experımental desıgn

Athletes were exercised on treadmill on the pulse of 85% anaerobic threshold threshold value during 30 min in order to provide aerobic exhaustion. During exercise, athletes pulse value was monitored. After exercise period, athletes were sat on a chair for 30th min recovery period. During recovery period, blood samples were taken on the 0th, 3rd, 5th, 15th, 30th min from athletes’ finger and this blood samples were evaluated and results were recorded. First isokinetic test was performed to the right ankle of the athletes during the 15th min of recovery period and numeric datas were recorded. Second isokinetic test was performed to the left ankle of the athletes during the 30th min of recovery period and numeric datas were recorded.

Same protocol was applied for athletes before exercise period. After exercise period, compression stockings were worn before athletes were sat on a chair for 30th min recovery period, and same protocol applied after wearing compression stockings.

Same protocol was applied for athletes before exercise period. During recovery period, electrostimulation was applied on to the bilateral calf muscles, same protocol applied after applying electrostimulation.

The blood lactate values and isokinetic parameters during sessions, two tests were used to statistical analysis. Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to compare two dependent variables. Mann Whitney U-test was used to compare two independent variables. The value of P<0.1 for all analysis was accepted statistically significant.
