Abstract (English): This study was carried out to determine the changes in liver enzymes and lipid metabolism of athletes after ten-week taekwondo training. The research group consists of 26 male athletes who are licensed in taekwondo and take part in national level competitions. A training program was applied to the research group to improve their conditional characteristics with ninety-minute taekwondo exercises three days a week for ten weeks. Blood samples were taken from the athletes twice in the resting state, at the beginning and at the end of the training. In the samples taken from the research group, liver enzymes (ALP, AST, GGT, CRP, ALT, LDH), blood fats (HDL, LDL, cholesterol, triglyceride), glucose and urea levels were determined. The data were analyzed using the SPSS statistical package program. Significance level was accepted as p<0.05. As a result of the research, it was observed that the liver enzyme values, GGT and LDH levels of the athletes increased in the pre-post test values, and there was a decrease in the levels of ALT, AST, ALP and CRP. It was determined that the glucose levels of the athletes increased in the pre-post test values, and there was a decrease in the pre-post test values of the urea levels. It was observed that the pre-post test values of HDL level, which is one of the lipid metabolism parameters of the research group, increased, and the pre-post test values for cholesterol, LDL and triglyceride levels decreased. In conclusion; It was observed that ten-week taekwondo trainings caused changes in the liver enzymes, blood fats, glucose and urea parameters of the athletes. In line with this information, we think that if training programs are organized considering the competition periods of the athletes, it will positively affect the performance of the athletes.

Abstract (Spanish): Este estudio se llevó a cabo para determinar los cambios en las enzimas hepáticas y el metabolismo de los lípidos de los atletas después de un entrenamiento de taekwondo de diez semanas. El grupo de investigación está formado por 26 atletas masculinos que tienen licencia de taekwondo y participan en competiciones a nivel nacional. Al grupo de investigación se le aplicó un programa de entrenamiento para mejorar sus características condicionales con ejercicios de taekwondo de noventa minutos tres días a la semana durante diez semanas. Se tomaron muestras de sangre de los atletas dos veces en estado de reposo, al inicio y al final del entrenamiento. En las muestras tomadas al grupo de investigación se determinaron los niveles de enzimas hepáticas (ALP, AST, GGT, CRP, ALT, LDH), grasas en sangre (HDL, LDL, colesterol, triglicéridos), glucosa y urea. Los datos fueron analizados mediante el programa estadístico SPSS. Se aceptó el nivel de significancia como p<0,05. Como resultado de la investigación, se observó que los valores de enzimas hepáticas, GGT y LDH de los deportistas aumentaron en los valores pre-post test, y hubo una disminución en los niveles de ALT, AST, ALP y PCR. Se determinó que los niveles de glucosa de los deportistas aumentaron en los valores pre-post test, y hubo una disminución en los valores pre-post test de los niveles de urea. Se observó que los valores pre-post test del nivel de HDL, que es uno de los parámetros del metabolismo lipídico del grupo de investigación, aumentaron, y los valores pre-post test de los niveles de colesterol, LDL y triglicéridos disminuyeron. En conclusión; Se observó que los entrenamientos de taekwondo de diez semanas provocaron cambios en los parámetros de las enzimas hepáticas, grasas en sangre, glucosa y urea de los atletas. De acuerdo con esta información, pensamos que, si los programas de entrenamiento se organizan considerando los períodos de competencia de los atletas, afectará positivamente el rendimiento de los atletas.
