Abstract

V originále

The purpose of this study was to assess the somatotypes of aikido practitioners. Thirty-three Czech male aikido practitioners (age 36.5±10 years, height 178.1±8.1 cm, and weight 81.2±10.1 kg) (mean±SD) participated in this study. The subjects were divided according to ranking system into three groups: Beginners (up to third kyu), Intermediate (second and first kyu) and Advanced (dan holders). The Heath-Carter method was used to assess the somatotype. Bioelectrical impedance was used to assess body composition. The differences between three aikido levels were determined by 1-way ANOVA. The present study showed that the general somatotype of aikido practitioners is between 3.5-5.8-1.8 (Beginners: 2.0-4.9-2.6, Intermediate 4.1-5.9-1.6 and Advanced 3.8-6.3-1.4). There were significant differences in endomorphy component (p=.001) between Advanced and Beginners (p=.006), Intermediate and Beginners (p=.001), whereas no differences were identified in mesomorphy (p=.082) and ectomorphy (p=.079) component.
