Resumen

Introducción: El motivo de este estudio fue determinar características antropométricas que pudieran instituir el tipo de físico y tipo corporal requerido para sobresalir en el tiro con arco. Métodos: Se estudiaron 33 arqueros indios de élite, tanto hombres como mujeres, de nivel nacional e internacional. Se recopiló de los jugadores tanto información demográfica mediante el método de entrevista como medidas antropométricas. Se calcularon además varios índices y luego se correlacionaron con el rendimiento de los jugadores en eventos de 70 y 50 metros utilizando arco recurvo y compuesto respectivamente con la ayuda de la correlación de Pearson. Resultados: La edad promedio de los arqueros indios fue de 18,3±1,3 años. La altura y el peso promedio de los arqueros fueron 167,2 cm (± 6,9) y 63,2 kg (± 10,2). El IMC promedio de los Arqueros fue de 22,5 (± 3,1 kg/m2). Estadísticamente, se observó una correlación positiva entre la puntuación individual y el peso del arco utilizado. El peso, a su vez, tuvo correlación con el índice de la mano, el índice del pie y la robustez. Conclusión: El presente estudio se ha centrado en todos los parámetros morfológicos posibles necesarios para sobresalir en el tiro con arco y los resultados muestran que todos los individuos tenían brazos largos, pechos estrechos y manos largas, lo que aumentaba su ventaja en el juego. Este es también el primer tipo de estudio en un frente científico que se ha centrado en los parámetros morfológicos necesarios para sobresalir en el tiro con arco.
