Effect of body composition on fitness performance in young male football players
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between anthropometric measurements and athletic performance in young football players. Total seventeen male football players (age: 17.0 years; height: 180.9±5.99 cm and weight; 71.36±6.30 kg) agreed to participate to this study, on volun...

description | The purpose of this study was to
investigate the relationship between anthropometric measurements and athletic
performance in young football players. Total seventeen male football players
(age: 17.0 years; height: 180.9±5.99 cm and weight; 71.36±6.30 kg) agreed to
participate to this study, on voluntary basis. Body composition measurements
including body mass, fat mass, bone mineral content, lean mass were made by
using Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). In order for the participant to
be evaluated athletic performance, countermovement jump (CMJTT), squat jump
(SJTT), T-agility test, 30m sprint test and 6 x 40m repeated sprint test were
performed respectively. Pearson correlation coefficient (r) was used to
relationship between body composition and athletic performance parameters. As a
result, negatively significant correlation was found between sprint times and
body mass (p lt;0.05). There was also negative correlation between repeated
sprint performance (measured in time) and lean Mass (LM), lean mass index
(LMI), appendicular LM and appendicular LMI (p lt;0.05). There were also
negatively significant correlation among T-agility test, body mass and LM was
(p lt;0.05). Non-significant correlation was seen among CMJT, SJT and body mass
index and other anthropometric variables. In conclusion, for football players,
changes in body composition are of great importance in athletic performance,
especially sprint and agility. |
