A total of 280 elite athletes comprising of 200 males and 80 females studying at School of Physical Education and Sports at University of Kirsehir Ahi Evran voluntarily participated in this study.

It was observed in the related scale that leg volume of the athletes in the lowest weight classes in weight sports were lower.
