Korkeushyppääjien suorituskyky ja kehon koostumus harjoitus- ja kilpailukaudella
2006
Anita Haapasaari. 2006. Korkeushyppääjien kehon koostumus ja suorituskyky harjoitus- ja kilpailukaudella. Valmennus- ja testausopin kandidaatintutkielma. Jyväskylän yliopisto, liikuntabiologian laitos. 33 sivua. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää kehon koostumuksessa ja suorituskyvyssä tapahtuvia muutoksia suomalaisilla korkeushyppääjillä. Koehenkilöinä oli kolme mieskorkeushyppääjää, joiden jokaisen tuloksia tarkasteltiin yksittäin. Mittaukset tehtiin kilpailuun valmistavalla, kilpailu- ja peruskuntokaudella. Seurattavia muuttujia olivat paino, rasvaprosentti, eri vertikaalihypyt ja juoksunopeus. Myös hyppääjien somatotyyppi määritettiin. Kahdella kolmesta hyppääjästä paino oli …
Comparison of body mass index (BMI) with the CUN-BAE body adiposity estimator in the prediction of hypertension and type 2 diabetes
2016
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a world-wide epidemic whose prevalence is underestimated by BMI measurements, but CUN-BAE (Clínica Universidad de Navarra - Body Adiposity Estimator) estimates the percentage of body fat (BF) while incorporating information on sex and age, thus giving a better match. Our aim is to compare the BMI and CUN-BAE in determining the population attributable fraction (AFp) for obesity as a cause of chronic diseases. METHODS: We calculated the Pearson correlation coefficient between BMI and CUN-BAE, the Kappa index and the internal validity of the BMI. The risks of arterial hypertension (AHT) and diabetes mellitus (DM) and the AFp for obesity were assessed using both the BMI a…

Physical Fitness and Body Anthropometrics Profiles of the Female Recruits Entering to Voluntary Military Service
2019
Introduction. The physical fitness of male conscripts has decreased, and body mass increased during the last few decades, especially in Nordic countries. However, limited research-based reports are available concerning the physical fitness profiles of female recruits. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate changes in physical fitness and body composition of female recruits entering voluntary Finnish military service between the years 2005 and 2015. Materials and methods. Data were collected from the initial fitness tests performed in military units during the first two weeks of military service. A total of 3875 healthy female recruits (19.9±2.1 yr.) participated in the fitn…
BMI-BFMNU: A structural index linked to fat mass
2021
Abstract Introduction: Body mass index (BMI) provides little information on body composition. For example, two people with the same BMI might have different body compositions. In this sense, the development of a new BMI able to provide body composition information is of clinical and scientific interest. The aim of the study was to suggest a new modified BMI formula. Material and Methods: A total of 108 subject, females 56 and males 52, 0-73 years old, in various physiopathological conditions were evaluated. Data were collected and processed by a program that through anthropometric measurements calculates classic BMI, volume, surface, V/S (that we can defined like a body-thickness “pse…
The Cave of Vecchiuzzo: anthropology, paleopathology and hierarchy of the human group with a statistical overview (Petralia Sottana – Palermo, Italy)
2013
Lo scavo della Grotta del Vecchiuzzo fu il primo effettuato nelle Madonie (Sicilia centrooccidentale). Fin dalla sua scoperta avvenuta per mano di Collisani e Carapezza nel 1936, il ritrovamento di manufatti nel vano principale indicò che la grotta era stata abitata. Gli scavi, effettuati a partire dal 1937, indicarono che la grotta era stata adibita ad abitazione o forse a santuario e che era stata abitata intorno al terzo millennio a.C. I resti scheletrici, attribuiti ad almeno quindici individui, sono stati studiati dal punto di vista antropologico, antropometrico e paleopatologico, combinando metodologie tradizionali a quelle più moderne. Sui dati odontometrici raccolti è stata effettua…
Changes in physical fitness and anthropometrics differ between female and male recruits during the Finnish military service
2020
IntroductionMilitary training programmes are often similar for male and female recruits despite sex differences in physical performance that may influence training adaptations during military service. The present study aimed to compare changes in physical fitness and anthropometrics between Finnish female and male recruits during military service.MethodsA total of 234 690 male and 3549 female recruits participated in fitness tests at the beginning and end of military service between 2005 and 2015. Anthropometric measurements were body mass, height, body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). Fitness tests consisted 12 min running, standing long jump, and sit-ups and push-ups.Results…
Physical qualities and body composition predictors of running performance in national level women’s official soccer matches
2023
The purpose of the study was to (1) determine match running performance, anthropometry and various physical qualities of national level women soccer players and (2) identify key physical qualities and anthropometric predictors of match running profile during a competitive season. Twenty-five national level Finnish soccer players participated in the study. Players performed countermovement jump, loaded squat jumps, 30-meter sprint, maximum isokinetic knee flexor and extensor contractions, an incremental treadmill test and underwent body composition assessment in the lab. Match running performance was analyzed from 115 match observations during competitive league matches over 11 weeks after t…
Salibandymaalivahdin antropometria ja fyysinen suorituskyky
2017
Johdanto. Maalivahti on merkittävä pelipaikka salibandyssa, jossa maalivahdin tarkoituksena on estää vastustajan maalinteko 1.60 m x 1.15 m kokoisiin maaleihin. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli profiloida salibandymaalivahdin antropometriaa ja fyysistä suorituskykyä ja niiden mahdollista yhteyttä maalivahdin torjuntatehokkuuteen sekä valottaa muuttujien eroja nais- ja miesmaalivahtien välillä. Menetelmät. Mittaukset toteutettiin marras-joulukuussa kaudella 2016 - 2017 aineiston koostuessa Suomen Salibandyliiton eri sarjoissa (naisten salibandyliiga, miesten II-divisioona, A-poikien SM-sarja) pelanneista maalivahdeista (n = 9). Koeasetelma sisälsi monipuolisesti antropometriaa ja fyysistä s…
Physical fitness and anthropometrics in Finnish soldiers during their early career: prospective changes during a 3-year follow-up.
2020
IntroductionPhysical fitness is a fundamental capability required of military personnel, but studies focusing on longitudinal changes in physical fitness and anthropometrics in soldiers are lacking. The aim was to evaluate physical fitness and anthropometrics in soldiers during their early career.MethodsA 3-year prospective study included 180 male soldiers (baseline age 26±2 years) with measures of a 12 min running test, standing long jump, sit-up and push-up tests, and body mass, height and waist circumference (WC). Baseline data were stratified into tertiles, and the changes within each tertile were analysed using dependent t-tests and analysis of variance.Results12 min running test dista…
