If limitations exist in skeletal dimensions, fat-free mass (FFM) might have an upper limit. To explore the upper limit to FFM, 37 professional Japanese Sumo wrestlers, 14 highly trained bodybuilders, and 26 untrained men were investigated for body composition (fat mass and FFM) and cross-sectional areas (CSA) of limb muscles, by hydrodensitometry and ultrasound, respectively. Mean % fat of Sumo wrestlers, bodybuilders, and untrained subjects were, respectively, 26.1%, 10.9%, and 12.1%. Sumo wrestlers had a significantly greater FFM than bodybuilders, who had a greater FFM than the untrained men. Six of the wrestlers had more than 100 kg of FFM, including the largest one of 121.3 kg (stature: 186 cm, mass: 181 kg, %fat: 33.0%). The FFM/stature ratio of elite Sumo wrestlers averaged at 0.61 kg/cm, with the highest 0.66 kg/cm. It is suggested that a FFM/stature ratio of 0.7 kg/cm may be an upper limit in humans. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
如果骨骼尺寸存在限制，去脂体重（FFM）可能会有一个上限。为了探究FFM的上限，分别通过水下密度测量法和超声检查，对37名日本职业相扑选手、14名训练有素的健美运动员和26名未经训练的男性进行了身体成分（脂肪量和FFM）以及肢体肌肉横截面积（CSA）的调查。相扑选手、健美运动员和未经训练受试者的平均脂肪百分比分别为26.1%、10.9%和12.1%。相扑选手的FFM显著高于健美运动员，健美运动员的FFM高于未经训练的男性。其中6名相扑选手的FFM超过100千克，包括最大的一名为121.3千克（身高：186厘米，体重：181千克，脂肪百分比：33.0%）。精英相扑选手的FFM/身高比值平均为0.61千克/厘米，最高为0.66千克/厘米。有人提出，0.7千克/厘米的FFM/身高比值可能是人类的上限。© 1994威利 - 利斯公司。
