Canoe polo Athletes' Anthropometric, Physical, Nutritional, and Functional Characteristics and Performance in a Rowing Task: Cross-Sectional Study2022 •
Understanding the physical, functional, mental, and nutritional attributes of canoe polo athletes is essential for training and development. Forty-three canoe polo athletes (mean age: 21.54 +/- 6.03) participated in the study and were assessed for: anthropometric measurements, exercise motivation, eating habits, adherence to the Mediterranean Diet, and physical and functional abilities. Correlation and multivariate analysis were conducted. Individual performance in a rowing task showed body mass index (beta = 0.41) and female gender (beta = 0.34) to be the strongest anthropometric predictors, whereas body fat (beta = -0.35) and triceps brachii skinfold fatty tissue (beta = -0.35) were the strongest negative predictors. Pushing strength (beta = 0.37) and range of motion with internal rotation (beta = 0.30) were the strongest physical predictors. The physical dimension of the Exercise Motivation Index was a significant psychosocial predictor (beta= 0.27). Senior participants had a higher waist–hip ratio (p = 0.04, d = 0.66), arm circumference (p = 0.03, d = 0.68), handgrip strength (p < 0.01, d = 1.27), and push strength (p < 0.01, d = 1.42) than under 21-year-olds. Understanding the highlighted sport-specific characteristics of canoe polo athletes can help trainers to design programs at all levels to optimize performance.

As a rower requires optimum physical fitness and adequate technical skills for maximum performance the aim of this study was to assess the physical fitness of Sri Lankan rowers, in view to improve performance and prevent injury in the future. The sample consisted of 46 rowers of the Sri Lanka army sports unit. Health related physical fitness components were assessed using standard tests and equipment. Performance was assessed by 2000m rowing ergometer test, cardiovascular endurance and vertical jump. An interviewer administered questionnaire was used to obtain information of injury patterns. The mean values for rowing ergometer time for male and female rowers were 7.07 and 8.36 minutes respectively. Rowing ergometer time negatively correlated with anaerobic fitness, lean body mass and flexibility in male rowers while it was not significant in females. Aerobic fitness negatively correlated with fat mass in both male and female rowers while anaerobic fitness did not correlate with any fitness components. The injury prevalence was 68.8% and 57.1% in male and female rowers respectively. Therefore, although the Sri Lankan rower's physical fitness characteristics for flexibility and body composition correlated well with performance, most of the other physical fitness characteristics were not comparable to international standards in rowing.
ABSTRACT The aim of this correlation study is putting forward the physical fitness level differences among elite athletes age vary between 12 and 14, participated both in individual and team sports living in İzmir. Participants of the individual sports are 28 female and 47 male athletes while participants of the team sports are 86 female and 113 male athletes. The physical fitness level evaluated by, muscle strength (hand-grip, sit and reach test, cardiovascular endurance (1 mil cooper test) velocity (30 m sprint, body composition body mass index,(BMI). The t-test statistical analysis was conducted to provide the possible differences between groups. The results shows that there are significant differences between females participants of team and individual sport according to the flexibility and 1609 m endurance test, two feet steady long jump, 30 m sprint, and body mass index level (p< .05). Results also shows that the physical performance level of females who participated in team sports are higher than females participants of individual sports. Additionally result revealed that, male elite athletes participants of team sports have higher physical fitness level than male elite athletes participants of individual sports. According to the t-test results there is no significant differences between flexibility and 1609 m endurance run test between elite level male athletes, although there is significant differences were found according to the both left and right hand grip, shuttle run test, two feet steady long jump, 30 m sprint, and body mass index.
