Although skinfold-derived equations seem to be practical for field application in estimating body fat percentage (BF%) and minimum body mass in Olympic wrestlers, prediction equations applied first need to be cross-validated in Olympic wrestlers to define the best prediction equation. This study aimed to evaluate the most accurate field method to predict BF% in Olympic wrestlers compared to BF% estimated by air displacement plethysmography (ADP). Sixty-one male (body mass 72.4 ± 13.5 kg; height 170.3 ± 7.0 cm; body mass index (BMI) 24.9 ± 3.5 kg.m; BF% 8.5 ± 4.9%) and twenty-five female wrestlers (body mass 60.3 ± 9.9 kg; height 161.3 ± 7.1 cm; BMI 23.1 ± 2.5 kg.m; BF% 18.7 ± 4.7%) undertook body composition assessments including ADP and nine-site skinfold measurements. Correlations, bias, limits of agreement, and standardized differences between alterations in BF% measured by ADP and other prediction equations were evaluated to validate measures, and multiple regression analyses to develop an Olympic wrestlers-specific prediction formula. The Stewart and Hannan equation for male wrestlers and the Durnin and Womersley equation for female wrestlers provided the most accurate BF% compared to the measured BF% by ADP, with the lowest bias and presented no significant differences between the measured and predicted BF%. A new prediction equation was developed using only abdominal skinfold and sex as variables, predicting 83.2% of the variance. The findings suggest the use of the new wrestler-specific prediction equation proposed in the study as a valid and accurate alternative to ADP to quantify BF% among Olympic wrestlers.
虽然基于皮褶厚度的公式在估算奥运摔跤运动员的体脂百分比(BF%)和最低体重方面似乎适用于现场应用,但首先应用的预测公式需要在奥运摔跤运动员中进行交叉验证,以确定最佳预测公式。本研究旨在评估与通过空气置换体积描记法(ADP)估算的BF%相比,预测奥运摔跤运动员BF%的最准确现场方法。61名男性(体重72.4±13.5千克;身高170.3±7.0厘米;体重指数(BMI)24.9±3.5千克·米²;BF% 8.5±4.9%)和25名女性摔跤运动员(体重60.3±9.9千克;身高161.3±7.1厘米;BMI 23.1±2.5千克·米²;BF% 18.7±4.7%)进行了身体成分评估,包括ADP和九部位皮褶测量。评估了ADP测量的BF%变化与其他预测公式之间的相关性、偏差、一致性界限和标准化差异,以验证测量方法,并进行多元回归分析以开发特定于奥运摔跤运动员的预测公式。与ADP测量的BF%相比,男性摔跤运动员的Stewart和Hannan公式以及女性摔跤运动员的Durnin和Womersley公式提供了最准确的BF%,偏差最低,且测量的BF%与预测的BF%之间无显著差异。仅使用腹部皮褶和性别作为变量开发了一个新的预测公式,可预测83.2%的方差。研究结果表明,本研究中提出的新的特定于摔跤运动员的预测公式可作为ADP的有效且准确的替代方法,用于量化奥运摔跤运动员的BF%。
