摘要：In this study, it was aimed to examine the posture structures of the Turkish National Weightlifting Team. The study was conducted on 12 volunteer male athletes who were present in the candidate team of the senior weightlifting national team and represented our country at least 5 in international competitions and were 27.3 ± 4.2 years old.Posture measurement was done as anterior and lateral from knee, vertebrale colon, shoulder, and region of head. Visual Basic software was used in the analysis of posture.Symmetry of right eye (19.1±5.2 deg), left eye (16.7±5.1 deg), right shoulder (4.2±3.8 deg), left shoulder (4.8±4.6 deg), right chest (7.5±3.2 deg), left chest (7.7±2.4 deg), left hip (22.5±5.8 deg), right hip (22.3±5.97 deg), valgus superior angle (173.7±5.3 deg), valgus inferior angle (169.9±6.1 deg), were determined in the anterior evaluation. Cervical superior angle (5.7±2.2 deg), cervical inferior angle (25.3±7.7 deg), dorsal superior angle (25.9±5.4 deg), inferior angle (6.9±3.4 deg), lumbal superior angle (9±2.2 deg), lumbal inferior angle (24.5±1.8 deg), pupliteal superior angle (172.7±3.2 deg), pupliteal inferior angle (167.4±2.7 deg), average pupliteal angle (167,4±2,7deg) were determined in the lateral evaluation.In conclusion, intensive posture deformity was found in the National Weightlifting Team. The cause of deformity can be originating from lack of content of the training and technical mistakes.
