Abstract
Abstract Background and Objective: One of the most common diseases of keratin tissues is dermatophytosis caused by dermatophyte fungi. Because of being contagious, it has a high prevalence rate in wrestling and body building gyms. This study was designed to evaluate the process of this disease and improve the hygiene of halls. Material and Methods: The Samples (N= 540) were obtained from athletes and gyms, and a questionnaire was used to gather information. To identify various specious of dermatophyte, the routine diagnostic procedures, culture media, and supplementary tests were performed. Results: Of samples taken from athletes, 59 wrestlers and 11 body builders suffer from dermatophytosis. Trichophytontonsurans (%28.81) and Epidermophytonfloccosum (%36.36) are the main isolates in wrestlers and body builders. Also the rate of epidermophytonfloccosum (%37.5) is the highest in the samples taken from gym mats and halls. Conclusion: Because of high prevalence of dermatophytosis, pay attention to increase of hygiene and training courses for coaches and athletes are crucially important.

Abstract
Background: Since the physiological and physical factors of the body may change due to wrestling, in this study, the effect of strenuous exercise was investigated in different age groups of wrestlers.
Methods: This semi-experimental study was conducted on 21 wrestling champions of Golestan province in three age groups, including teenagers, young adults, and adults (7 people in each age group), using the availability sampling method. They performed strenuous exercise on a treadmill at a speed of 6 km per hour until exhaustion, and their biochemical and physical factors were measured before and after running.
Results: According to the results obtained from the research, although the heart rate of adult wrestlers was lower than that of teenagers and young adults before and after the activity and the concentration of LDH and La was higher, based on the findings, intra-group and inter-group changes in anthropometric variables and HR (Heart rate), La (Blood lactate) and LDH (Lactate dehydrogenase) were not statistically significant in all three groups (p≤0.05).
Conclusion: The heart rate decreased with the increase in the age group, which may be due to long-term training adaptation. Also, the LDH concentration increased with the age group of the wrestlers, which may be due to the high number of fast-twitch fibers and the muscularity of this age group, although there was no significant difference between the indicators of the present research among the three groups.
