Since little descriptive data for field athletes is available, the anthropometric measurement, dietary intake and plasma lipid levels of 22 male and 15 female field athletes (throwers) are reported. Percentage body fat was calculated by using four skinfold thicknesses. Using this measurement as criterion, 53% of the females were obese. Percentage body fat and body mass index showed a positive correlation with total plasma cholesterol and plasma triacyglycerol and a negative correlation with percentage HDL cholesterol for males and females. Five of the males and three of the females were hypercholesterolaemic. The seven day estimated dietary record was used to determine their dietary intake. The males as well as the females consumed a diet that was high in fat and cholesterol content. Their diets were low in carbohydrate. It is recommended that these athletes increase their carbohydrate intake and lower their total fat intake. It is also recommended that the obese subjects should lose weight.
由于关于田径运动员的描述性数据很少，本文报告了22名男性和15名女性田径运动员（投掷运动员）的人体测量学指标、饮食摄入量和血浆脂质水平。通过测量四处皮褶厚度来计算体脂百分比。以此测量结果为标准，53%的女性肥胖。男性和女性的体脂百分比和体重指数与总血浆胆固醇和血浆甘油三酯呈正相关，与高密度脂蛋白胆固醇百分比呈负相关。5名男性和3名女性患有高胆固醇血症。采用7天估计饮食记录来确定他们的饮食摄入量。男性和女性的饮食中脂肪和胆固醇含量都很高，碳水化合物含量低。建议这些运动员增加碳水化合物摄入量，降低总脂肪摄入量。还建议肥胖受试者减肥。
