[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to show somatotype and physical characteristic differences between elite boxing athletes and non-athletes. [Methods] The somatotypes of 23 elite boxing athletes and 23 nonathletes were measured with the Heath-Carter method. The subjects were divided into four weight divisions as follows: lightweight, light middleweight, middleweight, and heavyweight class...

The aim of this cross-sectional research was to study the age changes in somatotype components of rural and urban Punjabi Brahmin females, ranging in age from 40 to 70 years. Urban Brahmin females (6.05-4.131.33) are more endomorphic and mesomorphic, but less ectomorphic than their rural counterparts (5.69-3.74-1.76). Both the rural and urban Brahmin females of present study demonstrate dominan...

abstract the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between some anthropometric parameters and physiological tests (physical fitness) in amateur soccer players. the present study was descriptive-comparative carried out as a field study. the statistical population consisted of male adolescent soccer players (9-13 years old) who volunteered to participate in leisure time programs o...

OBJECTIVE To determine the trend of high school students from Valparaíso Chile by means of an anthropometrical somatotype. MATERIAL AND METHODS two samples of students during the years 1984-1985 (86 men and 71 women) and 2009-2010 (77 men and 86 women) between 15 and 18 years of age have been studied. Somatotype was estimated by the Heath-Carter anthropometric method. RESULTS significant di...

The aim of the study was to define biomotor characteristics that determine playing performance and position in female handball. A battery of 13 variables consisting of somatotype components (3 variables), basic motor abilities (5 variables) and specific motor abilities (5 variables) were applied in a sample of 52 elite female handball players. Differences in biomotor characteristics according t...

INTRODUCTION Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disorder and as such it no doubt affects the components of somatotype of diabetics. AIM The aim of this study was to determine the somatotype of males with type 2 diabetes. PATIENTS AND METHODS In the study we assessed anthropometrically 169 male patients with type 2 diabetes. The patients were Bulgarian; they were allocated into two age groups: g...

The purpose of this study was to get new data about the physique (somatotype) of manic-depressive patients. The somatotypes of manic-depressive females (n = 31, mean age: 30 year) investigated show a balanced mesomorphic-endomorphic predominance. The mean somatotype was 6.34, 5.27, 1.39. Previous Hungarian studies showed a meso-endomorphic somatotype in manic-depressive females. The physique of...
