Summary
This study looked at how short-term rapid weight loss and exercise change blood cells and immune markers in 9 elite male wrestlers. Participants lost about 4.3% of their body weight over five days. Blood samples were taken before and after exercise, both with and without weight loss, to measure changes in white blood cells and immune cell types. The goal was to better understand the body's response to these common wrestling practices.
