Abstract
El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar las características antropométricas, composición corporal y somatotipo en tenistas varones categoría junior elite sudamericanos de la Federación Internacional de Tenis (ITF). Participaron del estudio 25 jugadores de 17,04 ± 1,05 años. Para determinar la composición corporal se evaluó el perfil restringido de 25 variables propuesto por Kerr en base al método pentacompartimental, el cual fracciona el cuerpo en 5 componentes (tejidos: muscular, adiposo, óseo, residual, y piel). El somatotipo se identificó con el método de Heath y Carter. Para la evaluación se utilizaron las normas propuestas por La Sociedad Internacional para el Avance de la Cineantropometría (ISAK) y el Grupo Español de Cineantropometría (GREC). Los resultados de la investigación mostraron un porcentaje de tejido muscular de 47,65 ± 2,83 %, tejido adiposo de 23,23 ± 3,56%, y tejido óseo de 11,79 ± 1,56%. En cuanto al somatotipo se apreció una clasificación de tipo mesomorfo balanceado con valores de 2,5 ± 0,81 de endomorfo, 4,9 ± 0,66 de mesomorfo, y 2,7 ± 0,96 de ectomorfo. Se concluye que el grupo de tenistas presentó un predominio del componente mesomorfo con un equilibrio entre los componentes endomorfo y ectomorfo. El presente estudio entrega datos referenciales sobre las características antropométricas en tenistas sudamericanos nivel elite categoría junior.
The objective of the present study was to establish the anthropometric features, body composition and somatotype in South American top junior tennis male players of International Tennis Federation (ITF). Twenty five players aged 17,04 ± 1,05 years old participated in such a study. The restricted profile of 25 variables suggested by Kerr based on Compartment-Penta method which splits body into 5 components (muscle,adipose,bone, residual tissue and skin) was used to determine body composition. Somatotype was identified by using the Heath and Carter method. International Society for the Advancement of Kinanthropometry (ISAK) and Kinanthropometry Spanish Group (GREC)´s proposed standards were used in the assessment. The research results showed a muscle tissue percentage of 47,65± 2,83%, adipose tissue of 23,23 ± 3,56%,and bone tissue of 11,79 ± 1,56%. Regarding somatotype, a balanced mesophorm classification showed values of 2,5 ± 0,81 endomorphy, 4,9 ± 0,66 mesomorphy and 2,7 ± 0,96 ectomorphy.It may be concluded that the tennis group had a mesomorphy component predominance with a balance between endomorphy and ectomorphy components. The present study provides reference data about anthropometric features in South American top junior tennis players.
