Correlación del Índice de Masa Corporal, índices de saltabilidad y potencia muscular de miembros inferiores en los jugadores profesionales de futbol de salón pertenecientes al equipo Santander FSC

Abstract

The ballroom football is characterized by being a sport with a considerable volume of displacements of medium and low intensity, where the energy is supplied by the aerobic system, and numerous efforts of short duration (3 to 8 s) and maximum intensity, in which the main contribution comes from anaerobic allactic metabolism, interspersed with short recovery periods (Barbero 2002). With this, for our research it is essential to determine the anthropometric profile of the players since in the realization of the sporting gestures a good physical condition is needed to achieve a correct performance in the field of gambling. Objective: Correlate of the Body Mass Index, saltability and muscle strength of inferior members in professional players of the Santader FSC team of the Santander region. Materials and methods: Descriptive correlational study between the variables BMI, elastic index, contribution of arms and muscle power of lower limbs with the application of a battery of jumps (CMJ, SJ, ABK) on a platform for contact and anthropometric measures, carried out with prior informed consent. Results: we observed the medians of age 21, size 170, weight, BMI 22 and power 863, 5 W. On the other hand, there is a deficit in the use of the contractile component in 70% of the cases evaluated and a very good contribution of the arms in 30% of the sample evaluated. A strong positive relationship is observed between power and BMI, p<0.001.
