This research is to determine the effect of citrulline malate supplement applied in addition to fitness training on the hormonal metabolism of athletes. 30 male athletes (15 Control group, 15 Experimental group) who are in the fitness branch and regularly participate in the research group voluntarily participated. A four-week, ninety-minute fitness training program three days a week was applied to the research group. Blood samples were taken from the athletes in the research group twice, before the start of the training program and at the end of the training. ACTH, Cortisol and Total Testosterone levels were determined in the blood samples taken. SPSS package program was used in the analysis of the data. Significance was accepted as p<0.05. According to the research results; It was determined that there was a statistically significant difference between the pretestposttest values of the experimental group's ACTH, cortisol and total testosterone levels (p<0.05), while it was determined that there was a statistically significant difference between the pretest-posttest values of the control group's total testosterone levels (p<0.05), there was no statistically significant difference between the pretest-posttest values of ACTH and cortisol levels (p>0.05). According to the comparisons between the groups; It was seen that there was a significant difference between the cortisol and total testosterone levels post-test values of the control and experimental groups (p<0.05), there was no significant difference between the pre-test values of ACTH pre-post-test, cortisol and total testosterone levels (p>0.05). In conclusion; It has been observed that the citrulline malate supplement group applied in addition to the fitness training has a significant effect on the hormone metabolism and provides a greater increase compared to the group in which the fitness training is applied. In this context, we believe that the supplements to be applied in addition to routine training will contribute positively to the performance of the athletes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
