Evolución de la masa corporal, la altura y el IMC en participantes del Ultratrail CSP-115

Introduction: this study analyses anthropometric changes in terms of body mass, height and body mass index (BMI), in 32 finishers of the Ultratrail-CSP-115. The aims of the study are: to analyse the differences of body mass, height and BMI between the start and the finish of the race; and to describe the evolution of the weight during the event. Methodology: the body mass, height and BMI were compared using a T-Student test. To describe the evolution of body mass during the race an analysis of variance (ANOVA) for repeated measures was used. Results: significant changes were observed in the analysis of both objectives. Discussion and conclusions: the results are consistent with other simila…
