| Abstract | ||
| 1. The purpose of this study was to investigate body mass index , body surface area , fat percent , waist – to hip ratio and resting metabolic rate among players of Gymnastic . 2. Determine the correlation coefficient between body mass index , body surface area , fat percent , waist – to hip ratio and resting metabolic rate among players of Gymnastic . 3. Proposed equation for predicting resting metabolic rate based on body mass index , body surface area , fat percent and waist – to hip ratio among players of Gymnastic . The sample consisted of ( 10 ) players , are trained at Gymnastic training center of Amana sport club , their aged are ranged from 12 to 14 years . Data collected of ( height , weight , waist , wrist , hips , forearm ) for measuring body mass index , body surface area , fat percent , waist – to hip ratio and resting metabolic rate , upon processing data by computer applying SPSS Ver. 10 Software , it is concluded the following : 1. The results revealed that there was significant relationship between fat percent and body mass index , body surface area , Also a significant relationship between body mass index and body surface area , Moreover the findings showed that there were significant relationship between body mass index and waist – to hip ratio , resting metabolic rate . 2. The proposed equation to predicting resting metabolic rate based on body mass index , body surface area among players of Gymnastic as follow : RMR ( k cal/d ) = ( - 105.043 ) + ( BMI × - 15.008 ) + ( BAS × 1148.887 ) Recommendation : • Using body mass index and body surface area to predict with resting metabolic rate , to conduct similar studies with different populations and sports . | ||
