Change of Direction Speed Tests in Basketball Players
Change of direction speed (CODS) is essential for basketball performance, extensively assessed by various tests. This review aimed to summarize the CODS test varieties for basketball players on publications until 2019 and identify recent trends regarding what types of tests have gained attention in the 2010s. Electronic literature searches were conducted using three databases with relevant keywords. 104 studies were found eligible, conducting COD…
Influence of maturation on anthropometry and body composition in Japanese junior high school students
BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to examine maturity-related differences in anthropometry and body composition in Japanese youth within a single year.MethodsTwo hundred and ten Japanese youth aged from 13 to 13.99 years participated in this study. Their maturity status was assessed using a self-assessment of stage of pubic hair development. Bioelectrical impedance analysis was used to estimate percent body fat and lean body mass (LBM). Mus…
Sex Differences in the Cross-sectional Areas of Psoas Major and Thigh Muscles in High School Track and Field Athletes and Nonathletes
The present study aimed to examine the sex differences in the cross-sectional areas of the psoas major, quadriceps femoris, hamstrings, and adductors in high school track and field athletes and nonathletes. The cross-sectional areas of the psoas major at L4-L5 and three thigh muscles at the mid-thigh were determined in the right side of the body using magnetic resonance imaging in 61 sprinters (29 boys and 32 girls), 50 jumpers (28 boys and 22 gi…
Methodological Issues Related to Thickness-Based Muscle Size Evaluation
The purpose of this study was to highlight the issues related to thickness-based muscle size evaluation that is commonly done in field studies. The cross-sectional area, thickness (the vertical distance from the upper end of the elbow flexors to that of the humerus) and width (the horizontal distance from the left to the right end of the elbow flexors) of the elbow flexors at levels from the reference site (60% of the upper arm length from the ac…
Event-related Differences in the Cross-sectional Areas and Torque Generation Capabilities of Quadriceps Femoris and Hamstrings in Male High School Athletes
This study investigated the event-related differences in the cross-sectional areas (CSAs) and torque generation capabilities of the quadriceps femoris (QF) and hamstrings (HAM) in male high school athletes. Subjects were soccer players (n=32), volleyball players (21), rowers (29), karate athletes (18), sumo wrestlers (15), sprinters (22), throwers (16), and nonathletes (20). The CSAs of QF and HAM at the mid-thigh were determined using magnetic r…
Variability of limb muscle size in young men
The purpose of this study was to determine the interindividual variability of the upper and lower limb muscle size in young men. Subjects were 655 Japanese men aged 18-39 years. They were sedentary and mildly to highly active individuals, including college athletes of various sports. Muscle thicknesses at each of the anterior and posterior portions of the upper arm, thigh, and lower leg were measured using B-mode ultrasonography. Interindividual …
Difference in Abdominal Muscularity at the Umbilicus Level between Young and Middle-aged Men
This study aimed to examine how the muscularity of the abdomen at the umbilicus level differs between sedentary middle-aged and young men. Magnetic resonance imaging was applied to determine the cross-sectional areas of skeletal muscle, subcutaneous fat, and interperitoneal tissue in 43 middle-aged (40 58yrs) and 38 young (21-29 yrs) men. The cross-sectional area of the skeletal muscle was analyzed as the sum of those of the rectus abdominis, abd…
Human skeletal muscle size and architecture
Seven hundred and eleven women and men (aged 3-94 years, including normal individuals and highly trained bodybuilders) were tested for the thickness and pennation angles of their triceps brachii (TB), vastus lateralis (VL), and gastrocnemius medialis (GM) muscles. The variations of muscle thickness and pennation angles were largest in TB (6-66 mm and 5-55 degrees), followed by VL (8-45 mm and 7-33 degrees) and GM (11-36 mm and 12-33 degrees), and…
Distribution of subcutaneous fat and muscle thicknesses in young and middle-aged women
Thicknesses of subcutaneous fat tissue at 13 sites (triceps, biceps, forearm, subscapular, abdomen, suprailiac, axilla, chest, quadriceps, suprapatellar, hamstrings, posterior calf, medial calf), and muscle tissue at nine sites (triceps, biceps, forearm, subscapular, abdomen, quadriceps, suprapatellar, hamstrings, posterior calf) were determined by using the B-mode ultrasound technique. Subjects were 36 young (18–29 years) and 44 middle-aged wome…
Body fat and muscle thickness in Japanese and Caucasian females
Fat and muscle thicknesses were measured at eight sites by B‐mode ultrasonography on 36 Japanese (age = 25.9 ± 1.9 years; mean ± SD) and 56 Caucasian females (25 ± 2 years) to compare the distribution of these tissues. The eight sites were the biceps, triceps, forearm, subscapular, abdomen, quadriceps, hamstring, and calf. Hydrostatically determined body density, corrected for residual lung volume, was similar ( P > 0.05) for Japanese (1.048 ± 0.…
The limb composition in the growing generation
本研究では7歳から18歳までの男子127名,女子124名を対象に,超音波法により体肢の筋および皮下脂肪断面積を測定し,それらにおける発育変化について検討した。男子の場合に,皮下脂肪断面積は7歳から12歳にかけて増加し,12歳から14歳の間では減少するが,15歳以降は再び増加した。女子の皮下脂肪断面積は,7歳から11歳までほとんど変化せず,11歳から14歳の間に急激に増加し,15歳以降はほぼ一定であった。筋断面積は男子では7歳から18歳まで年齢が進むにつれ増加するが,女子では上腕が14歳まで,他の部位が16,17歳まで増加がみられた。皮下脂肪および筋断面積における性差は13歳以降に顕著となった。筋に対する皮下脂肪の面積比は男子の場合に12歳から14歳にかけて減少したが,他の年齢ではほとんど変化がみられなかった。女子のそれは7歳から12歳にかけて減少し,12歳から15歳の間では増加し,15歳以降はほぼ一定であった。このことは男子では7歳から12歳,14歳から18歳の各年齢間では皮下脂肪断面積…
The Muscle Strength of Japanese Children in Relation to Relative Growth
The pourpose of this study was to investigate the ralative growth of muscle strength to body height as well as muscle area. Subjects were 141 boys and 130 girls from 6 to 19 years old. Maximum isometric strengths of flexion and extension at elbow and knee were measured by using Cybex II isokinetic dynamometer. Cross-sectional areas of the flexor and the extensor muscles in upper arm as well as thigh were measured by using ultrasonic apparatus. Mu…
