Prediction of selected anthropometric parameters on straid length performance for college level men short and long distance runners
Journal Title: International Journal of Advances in Scientific Research - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
In this study totally 30 athletes were selected randomly from Pondicherry University who are all participated intercollegiate athletic tournament in short and long distance events, in this 15 athletes from short distance and 15 from long distance runners. Their age ranged from 17 to 28 years as per their university records, variables were restricted for this study anthropometric parameters such as Mid -thigh girth, calf mid girth, leg length, BMI as well straid length performance. Collection of data: (Straid length) before starting data collection 400 mts track were divided in to 5 half, then selected subjects were taken sufficient time before starting data collection for getting warming up them self-it’s for avoiding injuries as well minimize data error, after that they were commended to run 400mts running then researcher has taken random data from each half and converted mean value for analyse data. Statistics: collected data were used for analyse relationship between anthropometric parameters and straid length Pearson product moment co-relation were used with 0.05 significance level. Results: Long distance runners in this there is positive Relationship between Mid- Thigh Girth and Straid Length Performances as well Calf Girth and Straid Length Performances. But there is no relationship between Leg Length and Straid Length Performance as well Body Mass Index and Straid Length Performance. Short distance runners in this there is positive Relationship between Mid- Thigh Girth and Straid Length Performances, Calf Girth and Straid Length Performances as well BMI and Straid Length Performances. But there is no relationship between Leg Length and Straid Length Performance.
