Top athletes make selected group of individuals with typical somatic features characteristic of the sport (Přidalová & Zapletalová 1997). The aim of this study was to determine the body composition of top Czech athletes in Greco-Roman wrestling. We also investigated the segmental distribution of fluid in the body of each of the probands and thus influence the Greco-Roman wrestling at the symmetrical development of the body. Totally we tested 12 probands with a mean age of 22.0 ± 5.8 years. Body composition and segmental distribution of fluid was examined using multifrequent bioimpedancy analyzer InBody 3.0.
