Abstract
ABSTRACT This study summarized protocols in the Lisbon Study for the Development and Evaluation of Musculoskeletal Fitness Standards in Youth and assessed associations between fitness assessments and health outcomes. The sample was 529 children and adolescents (10 to 18 yr). The fitness assessments included handgrip, vertical jump, long jump, plank, and lower body power. The health outcomes were total body and hip bone mineral content, hip bone mineral density, and total body lean tissue mass. Correlation analyses examined associations unadjusted and adjusted for size and maturity. After adjustment, in females, vertical jump, long jump, and lower body power were associated with all health outcomes (r = 0.22 to 0.55, p < .05). In males, all fitness assessments were associated with all health outcomes (r = 0.17 to 0.64, p < .05). Musculoskeletal fitness assessments including non-invasive and easy-to-measure field assessments are associated with important muscle and bone health outcomes in youth.
期刊介绍:
The scope of Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science (MPEES) covers original measurement research, special issues, and tutorials within six substantive disciplines of physical education and exercise science. Six of the seven sections of MPEES define the substantive disciplines within the purview of the original research to be published in the journal: Exercise Science, Physical Activity, Physical Education Pedagogy, Psychology, Research Methodology and Statistics, and Sport Management and Administration. The seventh section of MPEES, Tutorial and Teacher’s Toolbox, serves to provide an outlet for review and/or didactic manuscripts to be published in the journal. Special issues provide an avenue for a coherent set of manuscripts (e.g., four to five) to collectively focus in-depth on an important and timely measurement-related issue within the scope of MPEES. The primary aim of MPEES is to publish high-impact manuscripts, most of which will focus on original research, that fit within the scope of the journal.
