Abstract

Introduction: Calisthenics has generated great popularity worldwide, being such an ancient sport discipline in which body weight is used and that its practice has been registered since ancient Greece, however, there is limitation in the number of scientific investigations related to muscular strength in upper limbs in regular athletes of such discipline. Objective: To analyze the muscular strength of the upper limbs and the anthropometric characteristics according to age in calisthenics athletes of the city of Sincelejo. Methodology: The study population consisted of twenty calisthenics athletes with a height of 171.4+-8 and a body mass of 65.1 +-11.3. The present research is of a quantitative type with a non-experimental design of transversal type with an exploratory approach of correlational descriptive level. An assessment of body composition and prehensile strength of Calisthenics practitioners was applied, after dividing the group between subjects older than 20 years and younger than 20 years. Results: the group older than 20 years presented better levels of strength proportional to body mass, although no significant differences were found for the prehensile strength in kilograms for the right and left hands when comparing the age groups (p.>.05), however, the BMI value did present differences between ages (p<.05), no correlations were found between strength and anthropometric characteristics (p.>.05). Conclusion: There is a probability that the differences in strength are not associated to age but to the experience of the athlete.
