Anthropometrical and sport constitutional comparison of German male soccer players and male students of sports sciences
The aim of the present study was to figure out differences between the body compositions of German soccer players and the students of sports sciences from Hessen (Germany). For this purpose 30 soccer players and40 sports students were anthropometrically examined. The collective of the students majoring in physical education had the function as a reference group. Both groups were divided into “experienced” and “less experienced” athletes. The socc…
Sports anthropological comparison of physically exercising patients with Diabetes Type I and Diabetes Type II
In this study n=40 patients with diabetes (type I n=20, type II n=20; 20 males, 20 females), who were regularly practising sports, were examined anthropometrically. Anthropological basic data and computed somatotypical parameters correspond to international standards.The higher age of athletes with diabetes type II corresponds to the later onset of this form of diabetes.The registered significant anthropometrical differences between diabetes type…
Anthropometrical and sport constitutional comparison between young firefighters (≤ 30 years) and sport students (≤ 30 years)
The goal of this study was to find the typical body composition of a professional firefighter from Frankfurt/Main in Germany. For this purpose, sport students and firefighter volunteers, who had not reached the age of 30 years at that time, were measured. 88 male test persons participated in the present study. From these 88 test persons, 30 where professional firefighters with the average age of 24.8 years (± 2.6), and 27 firefighter volunteers w…
Sports anthropological comparison between male martial arts fighters and the students majoring in physical education
The goal of the present study is to present the differences in the body composition of male Muay Thai fighters and the students majoring in physical education. The students majoring in physical education served as a control group.The two groups (Muay Thai fighters and the students majoring in physical education) were divided into four groups: Experienced Muay Thai fighters and less experienced Muay Thai fighters as well as experienced students ma…
On the relationship between body dimensions and appendix length
In the last decades a lot of significant correlations between clinical and anthropometric parameters were found, e.g. the relationships between somatotypical and endocrine parameters or between body dimensions and echocardiographic heart size. During operation, surgeons often find a wide range of appendix size of patients with varying body dimensions. A goal of this work is the detection of the relationships between anthropometric characteristics…
Sports anthropological investigations on somatotypology of elite karateka
The goal of this work was to find differences between the somatotypes of elite karateka. For this purpose the somatotypes of Conrad, Heath & Carter were used. This sports anthropological study was carried out on the assumption that constant karate training causes changes in body composition. It should clarify whether different body types, including sexual dimorphism, are to be found in people practicing the karate disciplines kata and kumite. 80 …
Comparison of somatotype differences of soccer and handball players based on the methods of German and Anglo-American schools of constitutional biology
39 soccer players of the third division as well as 22 handball players of the second division and 17 handball fourth division players (average age 24 years) were examined kinanthropometrically. The sports anthropological evaluations were made according to the methods of Parnell (1958), Heath & Carter (1967), Conrad (1963), Knussmann (1961a, 1961b) as well as Tittel & Wutscherk (1972). Regarding the proportionality, proportion figures and phantom …
Somatotypes of male and female competitive Ju-Jutsuka
31 men and 10 women of the German national cadre or cadres of the federal states (average age 22.3+/-6.1 years), who practised the still relatively new martial arts sports Ju-Jutsu for 8.9+/-4.3 years with 6.2+/-3.6 h training/week, were investigated by means of kinanthropometric methods and compared to 31 male and 10 female hobby martial arts athletes (average age 29.2+/-7.0 years), who practised Jeet Kune Do, Ju-Jutsu or Wing Chun since 8.2+/-7…
Sportanthropologische Analyse tunesischer Spitzenkarateka
This study is based on a careful sport anthropological investigation (ca. 15 min) of 25 Tunisian athletes of the Karate team (aged 18 - 31 years) with special permission of the Tunisian Ministry of Youth and Sports. Considering the height of the Tunisian elite athletes (175.6 +/- 4.9 cm), heavier kareteka are bigger (178.9 +/- 2.2 cm vs. 171.4 +/- 3.9 cm). The mean weight was 73.1 +/- 8.2 kg (heavier athletes 78.7 +/- 5.9 kg vs. lighter athletes …
Sports anthropological investigation of female participants of the German championships of Sport Aerobics in comparision to female sport students and non-sportive women

Effect of diurnal variation on body composition under consideration of selected chronobiological marker systems
Diurnal variation in body composition in relation to chronobiological parameters was analyzed in 27 healthy students (22-29 years) four times over one day from 5:35 to 0:15 h. Body composition was determined by multifrequency bioimpedance analysis at fixed frequencies (1, 5, 50, 100 kHz). Resistance (R) and reactance (Xc) were measured. Total, extra and intracellular body water (TBW, ECW, ICW), lean body mass (LBM), and fat mass (FM) were derived…
Sports anthropological and somatotypical comparison between young male shotputters and javelin throwers of different performance classes and recreational athletes
This study examines anthropometric and somatotypical differences between German male junior shot putters (n = 19) and javelin throwers (n = 19).Recreational athletes (n = 11) served as the control group (age range 16 – 23 years).Overall, the shot-putters were larger and had longer legs and arms as compared to the junior javelin throwers. For the smaller javelin throwers of the higher performance category shorter legs compared to the height of the…

Body composition and the somatotype of European top roller speed skaters
The purpose of this study was to examine the differences between the body types of roller speed skaters. We started from the question of whether there is a roller speed skating type and which may be the most important constitutional conditions.To this end, the authors of this work made use of the constitution typologies of Conrad, Knußmann, Tittel and Wutscherk, Parnell, Heath and Carter, and the proportion figures. The skin fold thickness measur…

Constitutional differences between Muay Thai fighters from Thailand and from Germany
The aim of the following study is to present the body composition of male Muay Thai fighters that were measured in Thailand and in Germany. As a control group, German college students were also measured. The three groups were separated into five different groups: experienced and inexperienced. Muay Thai fighters from Thailand were not separated since they were much more experienced, more advanced, than their German counterparts. Experienced and i…
On the importance of the Estonian constitutional typing system for sports anthropology
In sports anthropology, two main international schools of constitutional typing are used: on the one hand the Anglo-American tradition of somato typing, but in the German-speaking world, on the other hand, the checkerboardtype constitution type system (Conrad) has dominated. A unique innovative approach to determining the individual constitutional type was achieved by Helje Kaarma: the Estonian constitutional typing system, con sisting of the 5 h…
Doping stigmata as pathological clinical signs in the diagnostic field of sports anthropology
An anthropometric and therefore cost-neutral screening approach as an indicator of the abuse of anabolic steroids by bodybuilders is the fat-free mass index (FFMI). Normalized to a body size of 1.80 m, the FFMI is calculated as follows: FFMI = lean mass (in kg) / body height (in m)2 + 6.1 × (1.8 - body height (in m)). Furthermore, various physical and anthropological symptoms can be summarized as evidence of anabolic steroids or growth hormone ab…
