PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND EXPLOSIVE STRENGTH OF SCHOOLCHILDREN
Abstract
The aim of this research was to determine the trend of relations between the system of body characteristics and the system of explosive strength variables. 402 subjects aged 7 to 10 participated in this study. There were applied 17 measures for assessing the anthropometric characteristics and 4 test to assess explosive strength. Based on the obtained results on the relation of body characteristics and explosive strength it has been determined that there are significant relations of the two studied areas on the subsamples of subjects aged 8, 9 and 10. Relations on the subsample of subjects aged 7 are not statistically significant (p<0.05). When it comes to the trend of relations between the ages of 7 to 10 a permanent increase is evident, except for the subsample of subjects aged 8, which shows a slight decline compared to the subjects aged 7. Based on the cross-correlation of the two studied area, it can be concluded that voluminosity and skinfolds measures appear negative (interfering) to tasks performance which highlights the explosive leg strength in all the subsamples of subjects.
