Blood samples of 19 volunteer national team wrestlers from various nations were evaluated in the study for lactic acid values after their last match in the 32nd European Free-Style Wrestling Championship in Ankara, 1989. This was the first European Championship after the change of wresting duration from six minute bout with one minute rest in between to continuous five minute bout. The results showed that means and standard deviations of free-style wrestlers were 103.97 +/- 11.31 mg% for blood lactic acid concentration, 25.32 +/- 4.03 years for age, 1.73 +/- 0.11 m for height, and 78.63 +/- 22.88 kg for weight respectively. The success of the wrestlers in this free-style wrestling championship had no relationship with the level of their blood lactic acid concentration.
