The components of body composition were studied in 56 second class rugby union football players: 28 forwards and 28 backs. Fowards were found to have 19.5% TBF (TOTAL BODY FAT) and 80.5% LBM (LEAN BODY MASS); backs 12.2% TBF and 87.8% LBM. It was felt that greater attention should be given to the ratio of TBF to LBM in determining body weight and that there should be an increased emphasis of the LBM at the expense of TBF.
对56名二级橄榄球联盟球员的身体成分进行了研究，其中包括28名前锋和28名后卫。结果发现，前锋的体脂率（TBF，全身脂肪）为19.5%，瘦体重（LBM）为80.5%；后卫的体脂率为12.2%，瘦体重为87.8%。研究认为，在确定体重时，应更加关注体脂率与瘦体重的比例，并且应以牺牲体脂率为代价，增加对瘦体重的重视。
