Abstract

The relationship between anthropometric parameters and the level of development of motor abilities of school students is a scientifically important and practically important topic. Using knowledge of physical development indicators it is possible to predict the success of the development of motor skills. These data can be used in the sports selection and building an effective system of physical education in secondary school. We measure the anthropometric parameters and test motor abilities of 160 school students of the city of Tambov at the age of 15. We conduct a correlation and regression analysis of the relationship of individual anthropometric characteristics (body length and weight, chest circumference and chest excursion) and motor abilities (speed, speed-strength, strength, coordination, general endurance and flexibility). As among boys, and among girls we reveal a direct distinctive and statistically significant correlation between body length and speed and coordinating abilities, as well as general endurance. Body weight of school students did not have a pronounced and statistically significant relationship with motor abilities. The circumference of the chest and excursion of the chest in young men had a pronounced, statistically significant relationship with the level of development of all the analyzed motor is capable of power. In girls the correlation was either not sufficiently, or had a different direction that indicates the absence interdependence. The obtained data allow to build a targeted strategy of development of motor abilities of adolescents on the lessons of physical culture at comprehensive school. The results of the study can be used by coaches in sports clubs for sports selection and sports orientation.
