Stretching methods were divided into five groups: control (no stretching), static, dynamic, static + dynamic and dynamic + static. The findings showed faster speed performance after control (p = .012; eta 2 = 0.57), dynamic stretching (p = .050; eta 2 = 1.11) and static + dynamic combined stretching (p = .043; eta 2 = 0.96) compared to static stretching; and there is a statistically significant positive difference according to the test averages after dynamic stretching (p = .050; eta 2 = 0.91) compared to dynamic + static combined stretching (p<0.05). Vertical jump performance, according to the control warming up, a statistically significant difference has been found according to the test averages after dynamic stretching (p = 041; eta 2 = 1.17) and static + dynamic combined stretching (p = .043; eta 2 = 1.07). No difference was found in flexibility and medicine ball throwing performances according to different stretching protocols (p>0.05). It was determined that the acute effect of static stretching had a negative effect on acceleration performances and dynamic stretching caused an increase in jump performance. This study suggests that dynamic and static + dynamic stretching can be used in young wrestlers to provide better performance in acceleration and jumping skills during warm-up sessions.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccesswrestlingspeedvertical jumpthrowing medicine ballstretching exercisesWarm-UpStrengthAgilityPowerValidityReliabilityProtocolsMedicineHeightSprintArticle271162176N/AWOS:000653718700013
