Abstract :This study aimed to examine the relationship between the 30-second Burpee test and body composition and certain physical parameters in female students studying at the Social Sciences Vocational School, Special Security and Protection Program, Çankırı Karatekin University. Fifty volunteer students participated in the study, with an average age of 19.24±0.89 years, an average height of 164.66±5.94 cm, an average body weight of 60.94±4.44 kg, an average body fat percentage of 22.93±1.82%, and an average BMI of 25.92±2.68 kg/m2. The statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 23 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) software package. The variance homogeneity of the data was tested using Levene\'s Test, and the normal distribution analyses were conducted using the Shapiro-Wilk Test. Pearson Correlation Analysis was used for all parameter correlations. The significance level was set at p 0.05). In conclusion, the 30-second Burpee test can be beneficial for assessing strength endurance among physiological parameters, especially regarding body mass. Considering body composition, the statistically significant negative relationship between body weight and the 30-second Burpee (frequency) should be taken into consideration as a determining factor during test trials.Keywords : Burpee, fitness, athletic performance, physical education
