Effects of Strength Training Assessed by Anthropometry and Muscle Ultrasound by Juan Carlos Giraldo García, Gloria María Ruiz Rengifo, Donaldo Cardona Nieto, Julián Echeverri Chica, Juan Cancio Arcila Arango, German Campuzano Zuluaga, Oliver Ramos-Álvarez

“…For the pre- and post-intervention relationship of the quantitative anthropometric and ultrasound variables, the Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used; the effect size of a Wilcoxon test was also calculated using the rank correlation, and the correlation of the anthropometric and ultrasound variables was determined using Spearman’s correlation coefficient, with a <i>p</i>-value < 0.05 considered statistically significant. (3) Results: There were no statistically significant differences in the anthropometric variables assessed, but there were significant differences in measures of quadricep muscle size and in the control parameter echo-intensity (EI) of subcutaneous fat in the variables. (4) Conclusions: The US of the quadriceps can measure changes in muscle thickness even without changes in muscle mass assessed by anthropometry, making it an excellent tool for the evaluation and monitoring of strength training.…”
