Analysis Of Body Shape And Body Composition Characteristics Of China’s Outstanding College Student Classical Bodybuilders

Classical bodybuilding is divided into categories based on the balance between height and weight,which requires athletes to have good innate body proportions,and also requires more demanding muscle training.The study of the body shape and body composition characteristics of college athletes in classical bodybuilding can provide some data reference for future competitions and help athletes better train and prepare for classical bodybuilding competitions,which has certain practical significance.In this paper,through the literature method,expert interview method,testing method and mathematical statistics method,the athletes(38 in total)who participated in the classical bodybuilding program in the 2022 National University Fitness and Bodybuilding Championships.Body morphology data and body composition data were correlated and the body morphology characteristics and body composition characteristics of the outstanding athletes were analyzed by independent sample t-test.We also compared adult classical bodybuilding athletes(15 in total)to identify some of the problems that still exist in the classical bodybuilding program for college athletes.Through the relevant data analysis research,the following conclusions were finally drawn:1.The results of the body morphology test data study showed that the excellent athletes showed the innate proportional structure of long legs and short and wide torso,the overall proportion of proportional and harmonious shape,all parts of the body had good muscle circumference characteristics acquired through training,and the shoulder circumference and chest circumference were wider compared to the general athletes;the ratio of height:umbilical height and shoulder circumference: waist circumference of the excellent athletes was significantly higher than the general athletes,and the ratio of thigh circumference: Arm circumference ratio is significantly lower than that of general athletes and closer to the golden mean ratio.2.The ideal circumference development indices of excellent classical college athletes were:shoulder circumference: 70%,chest circumference: 60.25%,upper arm circumference: 22.5%,forearm circumference: 17%,thigh circumference: 34%,calf circumference: 22%,waist circumference: 42.5%,and hip circumference: 52%.3.The results of the body composition test data showed that the excellent athletes had significantly higher muscle content and skeletal muscle composition than the general athletes,and in terms of body fat,the excellent athletes were significantly lower than the general athletes,and there were no significant differences in water content,protein and inorganic salt content,and the values of body mass parameters were around 23.5 kg/m2.4.Comparing the results of the excellent athletes in the adult group,the overall muscle circumference development of the excellent adult athletes was better than that of the excellent college athletes,in which the three parts of shoulder,chest and thigh had significant difference characteristics;the excellent college athletes were significantly lower than the excellent adult athletes in terms of skeletal muscle content by 3 kg and in terms of body fat percentage by 0.32%;the excellent college athletes The body ratio of thigh circumference:arm circumference,shoulder circumference: waist circumference was closer to the golden ratio than that of adult athletes.
