| description | In this study, it is aimed to
compare the anthropometric and physical fitness values of Turkish and Iraqi
sedentary boys who were educated in 2017-2018 education year. A total of 68
boys, aged 13,60 + 0,60 with 35 Turkish and 13,81 + 0,84 with 33 Iraqi, who had
no health problems and no disadvantages in entering the physical education
course, participated voluntarily. Anthropometric measurements (age, height,
weight, body mass index) of the boys participating in the study were taken. Eurofit
Test Battery tests (flamingo balance test, sit-in flexibility test, standing
long jump test, paw force test, shuttle test, twisted arm hanging test, disk
touch test, 10 × 5 meter agility running test, and vo2 max shuttle running
test). The arithmetic mean and standard deviation of all measurements are
calculated. Statistical analyzes of the measurements were made in the SPSS 22
program. Regular measurement of physical fitness values, including the physical
and anthropometric characteristics of secondary school children, can be used to
monitor the physical fitness levels and to set national norms by arranging
criteria related to the physical characteristics of students. In addition to
this, it can also contribute to the healthy growth of children, to the
efficient human power and to the selection of qualified athletes. |
