Reflection of sport awareness on body composition in students at the school of physical education and sports

Amaç: Dört yıllık bir periyotta vücut yağ oranlarındaki değişimlere bakarak Beden Eğitimi ve Spor Yüksekokulu öğrencilerinde spor bilincinin vücut kompozisyonuna yansıma derecesi incelendi. Çalışma Planı: Yaşları 17-21 arasındaki 20 erkek ve 22 kızdan oluşan toplam 42 Beden Eğitimi ve Spor Yüksekokulu öğrencisi, üç farklı antropometri formülü ile hesaplanan vücut yağ oranları açısından karşılaştırıldı. Her iki cinste çalışma grupları, herhangi bir sporu, son bir yıldır en az haftada üç gün ve günde iki saat olacak şekilde düzenli olarak yapan öğrencilerden oluşturuldu. Grupların karşılaştırmaları Tukey-Kramer çoklu karşılaştırma testi ile yapıldı. Bulgular: Vücut yağ oranları tüm gruplarda beklenenin aksine arttı. 2006 değerlerinde bir azalma gerçekleşmiş olmasına rağmen bunlar yine de 2003 değerlerinden yüksekti. Sonuç: Eğitim sisteminin öğrencilerde spor bilinci ve iradeleri yükseltecek şekilde yeniden gözden geçirilmesi gerekirken, öğrencilerin de spor bilincinin gerektirdiği yönde iradelerini zorlayabilmeleri gerekmektedir.

Objectives: We examined the reflection of sport awareness on body composition in the students at the School of Physical Education and Sports by determining the changes in body fat ratios over a period of four years. Study Design: A total of 42 students (20 boys and 22 girls) from the School of Physical Education and Sports (aged between 17 to 21 years) were compared in terms of the body fat ratios using three different anthropometry-based equations. The study groups of both sexes consisted of students who exercised regularly in any type of sport at least two hours per day and three days a week within the last year. Tukey-Kramer multiple comparison test was used to compare the groups. Results: The body fat ratios increased in all groups contrary to the expected reduction. Although there was a reduction in year 2006 values, they were still higher than year 2003 values. Conclusion: While the educational system should be reconsidered to give a shape to enhance sport and physical education awareness and willpower in the students, they should be able to force their willpowers to act as guided by their awareness as well.
