Abstract
RODRIGUEZ ARRIETA, Aldo Neyl; MONTENEGRO ARJONA, Oscar Alfredo and PETRO SOTO, Jorge Luis. Dermatoglyphic profile and physical condition of adolescent soccer players. Educ. fís. cienc. [online]. 2017, vol.19, n.2, pp.00-00. ISSN 2314-2561.
The goal of the study was to establish the relationship between the dermatoglyph profile and the physical condition of the soccer players of the U16 team Cordoba State, Colombia. Twenty players were evaluated, age 15,2 ± 0,3 years old, height 169,3 ± 4,3 cm, body mass 58,7 ± 5,0 kg, body mass index 20,5 ± 2,1 kg/m2 and percentage of adipose mass 10,2 ± 2,7%. The levels of explosive strength of the lower limbs, aerobic power, speed, agility and maximum strength of the upper limbs, showed a good development in relation to national and international studies with populations of the same age. The dermatoglyphic profile found was: Arch 0,45 ± 0,8; Loop 6,5 ± 2,7; Whorl 3,0 ± 3,0; SQTL 131,6 ± 39,1 and Delta index (D10) 12,6 ± 3,5. A very significant correlation (p=<0,00) was found between arches and Standing Long Jump (SLJ). There was also a significant correlation (p=<0,05) between the sum of the quantity of total lines on both hands (SQTL) and SLJ, and between D10 and SLJ; but, no significant correlation was found between the other dermatoglyphic characteristics and the physical ability indicators.
