Bodybuilding 
Developed by Eugen Sandow (1867–1925), and took its current form in the early 1980s, the bodybuilding was pioneered in Turkey by Ahmet Enünlü (born 1948). The sport became popular in Turkey, and  was included into the Turkish Weightlifting Federation. After many years, it has gradually turned into an individual area since 1982. In 1991, the Turkish Bodybuilding Federation was established. Fitness 
The fitness sport was incorporated into the Turkish Bodybuilding Federation in 1997. The federation was renamed to Turkish Bodybuilding and Fitness Federation. Arm wrestling 
Arm wrestling became first time  known in Turkey in 1991, when Haydar Gidil won the gold medal in the 70 kg category at the World Armwrestling Championship held in Netanya, Israel. It was officially recognized in 1998, and the first Turkish Championship was held in Yalova that year. Arm wrestling became part of the federation four years later in 2001. References
