Resumen

Introducción: El entrenamiento de resistencia se ha convertido en una técnica predilecta para que los jóvenes logren una buena salud, reduzcan la obesidad, desarrollen fuerza y ​​logren una imagen corporal positiva. Establecer las diferencias en somatotipo, composición corporal y aptitud muscular es necesario para diseñar un programa de entrenamiento de resistencia competitivo regional y colaborativo para el desarrollo. Este estudio comparó las variables de somatotipo, composición corporal y aptitud muscular de jóvenes entrenados en resistencia (RTY) en Ghana y Nigeria. Métodos: Se utilizó un diseño de investigación transversal descriptivo. Se reclutaron 202 jóvenes que entrenaban con resistencia {(Edad media = 21,89 ± 1,37, F-78 (38,6%), M- 124 (61,4%)}. Se midieron el somatotipo (ectomorfo, endomorfo y mesomorfo), la composición corporal [índice de masa corporal-IMC], el porcentaje de grasa corporal (%BF), la circunferencia de la cintura, la circunferencia de la cadera, el índice cintura-cadera (ICC), el agua corporal total y el grosor de los pliegues cutáneos (tríceps, suprailíaco, bíceps, supraespinal, pantorrilla medial, muslo)] y la aptitud muscular (fuerza de agarre manual, fuerza del cuádriceps en sentadilla contra la pared y fuerza del core). Resultados: Hubo más jóvenes ghaneses ectomorfos que nigerianos (54 > 41) y menos mesomórficos que nigerianos (45 < 56). Además, hubo menos endomórficos que nigerianos (2 < 4). Aunque no de forma significativa, más jóvenes ghaneses que practicaban entrenamiento de resistencia tenían sobrepeso y obesidad en comparación con los nigerianos. Los jóvenes ghaneses que practicaban entrenamiento de resistencia tenían valores significativamente mayores de bíceps, %BF, IMC y fuerza de agarre en la mano derecha e izquierda (P < 0,05), mientras que los jóvenes nigerianos que practicaban entrenamiento de resistencia tenían valores significativamente mayores de supraespinal, pantorrilla medial y muslo (P < 0,05). No hubo diferencias significativas en peso, tríceps, suprailíaco, circunferencia de cintura, circunferencia de cadera, WHR, agua corporal total, fuerza del cuádriceps en sentadilla de pared y fuerza central entre las dos naciones. Existen muchas similitudes y diferencias entre ambas naciones. Conclusión: Al diseñar un programa de entrenamiento de resistencia colaborativo y competitivo a nivel regional, se recomienda encarecidamente considerar criterios comunes. Estudios posteriores podrían examinar el papel de los estilos de vida, los hábitos y las modalidades de entrenamiento de resistencia.
