Abstract

The objective was to determine the relationship and changes in the evolution of basic anthropometric variables and physical performance tests in children aged 10-15 years. Seventy-six boys and girls were selected (approximately 50% of each). Six groups were formed according to age. Assessments included height, body weight (BW), body mass index (BMI), 0-20 m sprint, vertical jump (CMJ), and an endurance test [Test of the University of Montreal (TUM)]. In the distance of 0-10 m. sprint and CMJ, only from 13 years significant differences from the group 10 years were reached, and no group improved significantly compared to the group of 12. In the distance of 10-20 m and 0-20 m sprint significant differences from 12 years to 10 years, and from 13- to 11- years, were observed, but only the 15- years old group did better than the 12- years old. Regarding TUM, a tendency to increase the output from 10 to 14 years was observed, but in any case the differences were significant. Relations between the CMJ and TUM with sprint were all significant and negative. Controlling for body weight did not reduce these relationships. The IMC showed positive correlations with sprint, and negative with CMJ and TUM, and controlling for height increased these correlations. BMI was stable throughout the age range. The subjects with the highest endurance also tended to be faster and jump higher. The relationship between BMI and endurance was independent of age.
