Resumen

Introducción: El objetivo de este estudio fue investigar los cambios en la composición corporal, la forma corporal, la fuerza isométrica, la flexibilidad y la capacidad cardiorrespiratoria en función de la fase de entrenamiento. Se observaron seis atletas de MMA de alto rendimiento durante la fase preparatoria y competitiva. Se observó una disminución significativa de la masa corporal, masa adiposa, masa residual, grasa corporal, suma de 6 pliegues cutáneos, índice de masa corporal (IMC) y endomorfia. Sin embargo, no se identificaron diferencias significativas en las fortalezas físicas de flexibilidad, resistencia aeróbica, fuerza isométrica absoluta y relativa escapular y lumbar. En cuanto a la fuerza manual, se encontró una diferencia significativa en la fuerza isométrica relativa, pero no en la fuerza absoluta. Por lo tanto, se puede concluir que los principales cambios entre el período preparatorio y competitivo en atletas de alto rendimiento de MMA se observaron en la composición y forma corporal.
