Аннотация:The data for the present study were collected in 2005 in different Moscow schools. All children were of the same ethnicity (Russians). According to the level of physical activity they were divided into three groups: 1 – those who did not take part into regular physical exercise (44 boys and 50 girls); 2 - those who took part in special sports programs in general education schools (82 boys and 82 girls); 3 – students of special sports schools with high sports ranking (133 boys and 63 girls). The program included anthropometric measurements. For the study of body composition the bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) was used. For fat components these estimates are highly correlated both in boys and in girls and equal 0.85-0.88 correspondingly. Age changes of BIA measurements and body components were analyzed.
The degree of physical activity has a strong effect on body components: the contents of FFM and TBW are significantly increasing, and the FM is decreasing.
