Abstract
Some morphological characteristics and scores of Heath-Carter somatotypes in 10-13-year-old children who are engaged in various types of martial arts and children of the same age who are not involved in sports were compared. It was found that children engaged in various types of martial arts in all indicators of total body size surpass their peers who do not go in for sports. Among children involved in judo, the predominance of endomorphy was established, in children engaged in taekwondo - the predominance of mesomorphy, and in children not going in for sports - the predominance of ectomorphy and endomorphy.
