Body Composition, Somatotype and Raw Bioelectrical Impedance Parameters of Adolescent Elite Tennis Players: Age and Sex Differences

Abstract: Studies analyzing tennis players’ body composition and morphological and bioelectrical characteristics are scarce, especially among adolescents. This study aimed to explore sex- and age-based differences in body composition, somatotype, and bioelectrical properties among elite young male and female tennis players aged 13–16 years. Twenty-two male (14.45 ± 1.10 years) and 20 female (14.30 ± 1.03 years) elite tennis players participated in this study and were compared according to sex (males vs. females) and, wi… Show more

“…31 For each independent variable separately, a multiple regression analysis was used to determine its association with the dependent variables using the unstandardized beta coefficient and adjusting for FFM and age because of their influence on raw BIA parameters and because we included athletes practicing different sports with a wide range of age and FFM values. 27,32,33 The significance level was set at p < 0.05. If more than one variable was a predictor in the derived model, multicollinearity was evaluated.…”
