摘要:Purpose.The aim of this study is to determine relationship between body composition and pulmonary function in triathletes.15 male subjects were participated in this study at the racing period of the 9th Triathlon World University Championship in 2008.Methods.Participants averaged 21.60 ± 2.50 years of age,176.10 ± 9.57 of height and 67.07 ± 9.18 weight.Pearson Product correlation coeffient technique was used to determine the relationship between body composition (Tanita BC 418 Body Composition Analyzer) and pulmonary function (Cosmed Pony FX Spirometer,Italy) in triathletes.Results.The results revealed that there was a significant positive correlation between FVC (Force Vital Capacity),FEV (Force Expiratory Volume),PEF (Peak Expiratory Flow),VC (Vital Capacity),MVV (Maximal Voluntary Ventilation) and height,weight,FFM (Fat Free Mass),TBW (Total Body Water),Trunk FFM (Trunk Free Fat Mass),FMM (Predicted Muscle Mass) Moreover,the results also showed that there was a significant positive correlation between FEV/FVC (%) and age,VC,FAT %.(p<0.05;p<0.01).On the other hand,the results demonstrated that there was a negative correlation,but not significant,between Fat % (Body fat Percentage),FM (Fat Mass) and FVC,FEV,PEF,VC,MVV.The results also showed that there was a negative correlation,but not significant,between FEV/FVC (%) and age,height,weight,FFM,TBW,Trunk FFM,Trunk FMM.(p<0.05,p<0.01).Conclusions.It could be concluded that if the the FM rate of the triathletes increase,the parameters of pulmonary function can decrease.If the FMM rate of the triathletes increases,their pulmonary function parameters also enhance.
