The purpose of this study was to determine the effects
of rapid weight loss on wrestlers' efficiency incorporating
competitive aspects of the sport into the research pro-
cedures. Six subjects were selected from the North Texas
State University Wrestling Club. Eight cardiovascular and
neuromuscular measurements were taken and recorded before
treatment and following treatment. Astrand's bicycle
ergometer test was utilized to obtain exhaustive ,heart
rates. Data were analyzed by a one-tailed t test at the
.05 level. Conclusion of the investigation was that
following 6.25 per cent rapid loss of body weight, over
a period of one week, no loss of efficiency occurred among
westlers under simulated competitive conditions.
