Somatotipo en jóvenes deportistas amateurs del mundo andino

Abstract

La técnica del somatotipo, de uso fundamental en antropología y medicina deportiva, describe conjuntamente la forma y la composición corporal de un sujeto. Así, sus tres cifras consecutivas reflejan los niveles de adiposidad, robusticidad musculo-esquelética y linearidad respectivamente. Se analiza aquí el somatotipo de participantes en los VI Juegos de la Juventud Transandina (San Salvador de Jujuy, Marzo 2003). Los deportistas de ambos sexos y edades entre los 8 y 20 años (n = 276), procedieron de Argentina, Bolivia, Chile y Perú donde existen regiones ubicadas a diferentes niveles de altitud geográfica. Las modalidades de competición fueron Básquet (n = 66), Volley (n = 82) y Natación (n = 128). Utilizando el método de Heath-Carter se estimaron las componentes de endomorfía, mesomorfia y ectomorfía en cada disciplina. Los valores medios fueron respectivamente Básquet: 4.50- 3.29- 3.20, Voley: 4.27-3.56- 3.09 y Natación: 3.40- 4.17- 2.99 para varones y 3.87- 3.90- 2.56 para mujeres. Para conocer el grado de homogeneidad se calcularon los índices de dispersión del somatotipo (SDI), observándose la mayor variabilidad en natación, seguido de Básquet y Voley. Los resultados se contrastaron con los reportados por otros autores tanto en países latinoamericanos como en otros continentes. Para ello se utilizaron estadísticos apropiados, como las distancias altitudinales medias (SAD). Frente a las series de élite comparadas y para las tres disciplinas, los jóvenes analizados presentan una endomorfia significativamente mayor, siendo las diferencias menores para los dos componentes restantes.
