Sažetak
The importance of certain physical fitness abilities for success in a wrestling bout varies in wrestlers of various wrestling styles, weight categories and age. The goal of the research was to determine any differences between three different weight categories (“light-weight”, “mid-weight” and “heavy-weight”) of top-level junior free style wrestlers. The research was conducted on the sample of 46 wrestlers. The set of 19 tests was used to assess general and specific fitness preparedness for advanced wrestlers. Two discriminant variables were determined and defined as: absolute maximal strength and speed of simple and complex movement execution. They discriminate significantly among the three weight groups of top-level junior wrestlers. The findings highlight the necessity to individualize physical conditioning for toplevel junior free style wrestlers with respect to weight categories.
