Capacidades físico-motrices y perfil antropométrico : escolares entre los 7 y 11 años de la Básica Primaria de la Institución Educativa Rafael J. Mejía del municipio de Sabaneta, Colombia

ABSTRACT: This study aims to determine the current state of Physical skills and anthropometric profile, and the relation between these variables, in students of the Rafael J. Mejia School, in Sabaneta. Astratified simple of 207 students (99 boys, 44% 108 girls, 56%) was randomly selected from atotal of 455 students. We applied measurement procedures and evaluation proposed by J uregui and Ordo¤ez (1993). The results showed that a considerable proportion of the sample was above the 75th percentile for anthropometric tests and skinfolds; below the 25th percentile in physical abilities. This suggests that there is a tendency in these children to obesity and physical inactivity.
