Abstract
Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the relationship between low back, hamstring, and ankle flexibility with rowing performance. Materials and Methods: The study included 26 male rowers (mean age: 16.72±0.73 years). All participants were assessed regarding the flexibility of the low back, hamstring, ankle, and rowing performance by sit and reach, weight-bearing lunge, and 2000-m ergometer tests, respectively. Results: No correlation was found between sit and reach test results and ergometer values. However, a negative correlation was found between ankle flexibility and ergometer time results (r= -0.39; p
