“…Studies have revealed the association between several adiposity indicator categories and musculoskeletal performances in youths (8,13,25) but not TMI, which makes it difficult to compare our findings with other fat indicators such as BMI and waist circumference. In this study, the regression analysis of the association between the triponderal mass index and musculoskeletal performance showed that severely underweight individuals performed poorly in SBJ and SR.…”

“…The methodology of this study followed the approach used in Toriola et al (8) study, where a cross-section research plan was utilized to gather data on TMI, blood pressure, and musculoskeletal health variables. These are flexibility (sit-andreach test), muscular endurance (sit-up test), explosive leg power (standing broad jump), and shuttle run counts among 1229 (boys=483, 39.3% and girls=746, 60.7%) school children aged 9-13 years, haphazardly chosen from five municipal primary schools in Ado-Ekiti, Southwest, Nigeria.…”

“…The two major anthropometric assessments most used to evaluate body fat in several age groups are body mass index (BMI) and tri-ponderal mass index (TMI) (6,7). However, BMI has been most extensively recognized and used as a body weightiness valuation means among youths, while its association with physical or musculoskeletal fitness and performance has been widely investigated (8)(9)(10)(11). However, it has been reported that BMI inherently has weaknesses in measuring fat mass percentage (7,12).…”

Background. Evidence shows that obesity negatively influences children's physical, physiological and musculoskeletal well-being. Objectives. This study examined the relationship between triponderal mass index (TMI), blood pressure (BP), and musculoskeletal fitness (MSF) in a cross-sectional sample of school children in Ado-Ekiti, Southwest Nigeria. Methods. Body weight, stature, systolic and diastolic blood pressures (SBP & DBP), and three components of musculoskeletal fitness, comprising sit and reach (SR), sit-up (SUP), standing broad jump (SBJ), and 20-meter shuttle runs, were assessed in 1229 (boys=483, 39.3%; girls=746, 60.7%) school children (age range: 9-13 years). Results. A significant positive correlation was found between TMI and SBP (r= 0.182, P < 0.01), and DBP (r= 0.090, P < 0.01), while TMI and SR (r= -0.067, P < 0.05) and SBJ (r= -0.246, P < 0.01) yielded a substantial inverse relationship. Children with severe underweight were significantly less probable to perform well in SBJ (OR= 0.96, CI= 0.94; 0.99) and 20-meter shuttle run (OR= 1.39, CI= 1.22; 1.61). Childhood overweight was associated with increased SBP (OR= 1.03, CI= 1.02; 1.05) and poor SBJ (OR= 0.98, CI= 0.97; 0.99). Obese children were significantly associated with increased SBP (OR= 1.04, CI= 1.02; 1.06), poor SR (OR= 0.92, CI= 0.87; 0.98) and SBJ (OR= 0.94, CI= 0.93; 0.96) scores compared to age-and sex-specific norms. Conclusion. Elevated BP and poor musculoskeletal fitness could adversely affect the well-being of undernourished, overweight, and obese Nigerian children. Findings implicate the need to implement dietary and physical activity intervention programs to promote desirable health-related quality of life in school-going children.

“…28 Penelitian lainnya didapatkan bahwa baik pada responden dengan overweight maupun underweight mengalami penurunan fleksibilitas otot yaitu menunjukkan performa terbatas dalam chair sit and reach test dan pada kasus underweight hal ini disebabkan karena massa lemak dan massa otot yang kurang. 29 Jika dibandingkan antara individu dengan underweight dengan yang mengalami overweight atau obesitas, terbukti bahwa individu underweight memiliki fleksibilitas yang lebih baik. 30 Hal ini terutama disebabkan karena seseorang yang gemuk memiliki massa lemak dan otot yang lebih tebal dan berat sehingga mempersulit peregangan otot secara lebih fleksibel.…”

Pendahuluan: Seiring bertambahnya usia, fleksibilitas otot mengalami penurunan yang memiliki peran dalam menjaga stabilitas postur tubuh dan pergerakan yang penting dalam kaitannya dengan Aktivitas Kehidupan Sehari-hari (AKS) pada lansia. Penurunan fleksibilitas otot juga dapat mengakibatkan keterbatasan fisik yang berdampak pada produktivitas, kualitas hidup, dan kebahagiaan lansia. Salah satu faktor yang memengaruhi fleksibilitas otot adalah Indeks Massa Tubuh (IMT). Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menilai hubungan antara IMT dan fleksibilitas otot hamstring pada lansia. Metode: Ringkasan metode penelitian menjelaskan desain penelitian yang digunakan. Rancangan penelitian ini merupakan studi potong lintang (cross-sectional) yang dilakukan pada bulan April 2021. Populasi penelitian melibatkan seluruh lansia di Banjar Alas Arum Sesetan Denpasar, dan sampel dipilih dengan metode pengambilan sampel keseluruhan (whole sampling). Sebanyak 57 sampel penelitian memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. IMT diukur dengan mengukur berat badan dan tinggi badan partisipan, dan kemudian dihitung dengan rumus IMT. Fleksibilitas otot hamstring diukur dengan Chair Sit and Reach Test. Data dianalisis menggunakan perangkat lunak komputer, dengan uji chi-square test untuk menilai hubungan antara IMT dan fleksibilitas otot hamstring. Hasil: Hasil analisis hubungan antara IMT dan fleksibilitas hamstring pada lansia dengan uji chi-square test menunjukkan hasil p=0,000 (p<0,05), menunjukkan adanya hubungan yang signifikan antara IMT dan fleksibilitas hamstring. Simpulan: Terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara IMT dan fleksibilitas otot hamstring pada lansia di Banjar Alas Arum Sesetan Denpasar. Kata Kunci: indeks massa tubuh, fleksibilitas hamstring, lansia
