Although there is a widespread perception that Pes Planus (PEP) foot deformity affects exercise negatively in the population, there is no common information regarding Pes Cavus (PEC) foot deformities. In this study, it was aimed to determine the positive or negative effects of PEP and PEC foot deformities on anaerobic exercise. Subject groups were identified through kinematic analysis and cross-sectional screening, and consisted of 72 volunteer individuals (36 males and 36 females) aged between 18-25, with no licensed sports experience. Independent foot groups were subjected to Anaerobic Power Tests, including the Vertical Jump Test (VJT), Double-Leg Horizontal Jump Test (HJT), and Single-Leg Penta (Pentagon) Jump Test (PJT). The data obtained were statistically compared. The comparison of independent of more than two groups was performed with parametric tests using ANOVA variance analysis and Tukey (post hoc) tests. In VJT, no significant difference was found between both male and female independent groups. While there was no significant difference among male groups in HJT, the value of the female PEC group was significantly higher than the PEP group (p<0.05). In PJT, both male and female independent groups showed a significantly higher value for the PEC group. In conclusion, no difference was observed in anaerobic jumps in the vertical direction among Pes Cavus, normal, and Pes Planus feet. However, in anaerobic movements occurring sequentially forward, Pes Cavus feet were found to generate better anaerobic power compared to normal and Pes Planus feet.
