The Evaluation of Somatotype, Body Composition and Motoric Characteristics of Turkish National Biathlon Team

Year 2017, Volume: 12 Issue: 2, 108 - 116, 25.12.2017

Abstract

The aim of
this study was to evaluate somatotype, body composition characteristics and
selected motoric characteristics of biathletes in the Turkish National Team. A
total of 10 male biathletes and 7 female biathletes, all members of the Turkish
National preparation camp participated in this study voluntarily. The variables
measured including somatotype characteristics, body compositions, back-leg
strengths and right-left handgrip strengths. Body fat percentage and somatotype
were measured by Holtain Skinfold Caliper. Body fat percentage
was calculated with the equation provided by Siri
formula.
Somatotype
components was calculated according to the equation recommended by Heath and
Carter. Hand grip and back-leg dynamometers were used to evaluate for strength
measurements. The results were presented as mean, standard deviation and 95%
confidence interval. As a result, the anthropometric and selected motoric
features of the Turkish National Biathlon Team athletes are below international
norms and not enough to win medals.

Türk Milli Biatlon Takımı Sporcularının Somatotip, Vücut Kompozisyonu ve Motorik Özelliklerinin İncelenmesi

Year 2017, Volume: 12 Issue: 2, 108 - 116, 25.12.2017

Abstract

Bu çalışma ile Türkiye
Milli Biatlon Takımı sporcuların somatotip, vücut kompozisyonu ve motorik
özelliklerinin incelenmesi amaçlandı. Çalışmaya, Türkiye Biatlon Milli Takımı
Hazırlık Kampı’nda yer alan 10 erkek sporcu ile 7 kadın sporcu gönüllü olarak
katıldı. Tüm sporcuların somatotip özellikleri, vücut kompozisyonları,
sırt-bacak kuvveti ve sağ-sol el kavrama kuvvetleri ölçüldü. Vücut yağ yüzdesi
ve somatotip ölçümlerinde Holtain marka skinfold kaliper kullanıldı. Yağ
parametreleri Siri formülüne göre hesaplandı. Somatotip parametreler ise
Heath-Carter’a göre hesaplandı. Kavrama kuvveti parametrelerini ölçmek için
Holtain marka el dinamometresi, sırt ve bacak kuvveti parametrelerini ölçmek
için bacak dinamometresi kullanıldı. Sonuçlar aritmetik ortalama, standart
sapma ve %95 güven aralığında değerlendirildi.



Sonuç olarak, Türk Milli
Biatlon Takımı sporcularının antropometrik ve seçilmiş motorik özelliklerinin
uluslararası normların altında olduğu ve madalya kazanmak için yeterli olmadığı
görülmektedir.
