Variations in % Body Fat, the Amount of Skeletal Muscle and the Index of Physical Fitness in Relation to Sports Activity/Inactivity in Different Age Groups of the Adult Population in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The aim of this study was to describe typical changes in several parameters of body composition ? the amount of skeletal muscle mass (SMM), % body fat (BF) and body mass index (BMI) - in selected age categories (30+ years) of men and women in the Czech Republic, depending on the degree of sports activity. Study (n = 823, M = 343, F = 480) monitored differences in BF, SM and BMI in five age groups (from 30-39 years to 70+ years). Physically inactive individuals have (p < 0.05) higher % BF in comparison with physically active individuals (29.5 ? 0.59 vs. 27 ? 0.38%), higher BMI (27.3 ? 0.32 vs 26.1 ? 0.20 kg/m2), but lower SM (39.0 ? 0.33 vs 40.4 ? 0.21%). The results indicate that with an increasing age, there is a trend towards increasing values ofBMI and % BF, and decreasing values of SMM.
