Resumen

Introducción: El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar las características antropométricas de atletas de nivel universitario de Malasia y explorar las relaciones potenciales entre las medidas antropométricas y el rendimiento en el sprint lineal de 20 m. Método: Participaron en el estudio cuarenta atletas masculinos de nivel universitario malasios asociados con universidades de Malasia y que compiten regularmente en competencias a nivel estatal. Se realizaron mediciones antropométricas de masa corporal, estatura, 8 sitios de pliegues cutáneos, 3 circunferencias y 2 anchuras. Se calculó el somatotipo, el % de grasa corporal y la suma de pliegues cutáneos. Se realizó una prueba de sprint lineal de 20 m para evaluar la aceleración y la velocidad de carrera. Resultados: El análisis de comparación por pares reveló que los lanzadores tuvieron diferencias significativas en endomorfia con los atletas que compiten en sprint, kárate y media distancia (p˂ 0,05), en mesomorfia con los atletas que compiten en larga distancia, media distancia, velocistas, futbolistas y kárate ( p ˂ 0,05), y en ectomorfia con atletas que compiten en media distancia y kárate. Se encontró que el coeficiente de correlación de Pearson entre el porcentaje de grasa corporal y el tiempo de sprint era 0,374 (p = 0,025, de dos colas), lo que indica una correlación positiva estadísticamente significativa entre las dos variables. Conclusión: El físico está altamente correlacionado con las características físicas adecuadas para los eventos deportivos específicos y el desarrollo de las funciones atléticas requeridas en cada deporte y determina el éxito dentro de cada deporte. El porcentaje de grasa corporal influye en la capacidad de un individuo para acelerar y correr al máximo, y las características antropométricas afectan en última instancia el rendimiento.
