简要总结
This study aimed to analyze the accuracy of different anthropometric equations to estimate body fat in professional male soccer players, setting DXA body fat as the reference.
详细描述
The study consisted of evaluating anthropometric measurements and body composition with DXA in professional male soccer player aged 18 years and older. Standardized and certified personnel carried out anthropometric measurements and DXA whole body scan the same day.
Body fat was estimated with several anthropometric equations. These equations were divided into two groups: 1) Derived from non-athletic samples; and 2) Derived from athletic samples.
The body fat estimated from anthropometric equations was compared with DXA, and those with non-significant differences were further analyzed for calculating mean differences and 95% limits of agreement with DXA. This analysis was carried out for all equations.
