Resumen

Introduction: Sports practice is associated with the improvement of health parameters. Flexibility and strength, part of these parameters, have been studied for the evaluation of health markers. Aim: Thus, the objective of the present study was to compare the strength and flexibility levels of sedentary male adolescents with active male adolescents of different sports modalities. Methods: 225 male subjects, aged between 12 and 18 years, divided into two groups: 175 athletes (GD), divided into Aerobic group (AEG), anaerobic group (ANAEG) and mixed sports group (MG) and 50 sedentary (SG) or control group participated in this survey. They were evaluated using the ALPHA-FITNESS battery dynamometry test and flexibility, through the "Sit and reach" and "Trunk lift" tests of the FITNESSGRAM battery. Results & discussion: Significant differences were found in manual dynamometry in the GD, AEG and MG groups compared to SG (p <0.01). Significant differences were also observed in “Sit and reach” compared to DG and AEG groups in the sedentary group (p <0.05). No significant differences were found for the trunk lift test. Conclusions: Sports adolescents obtain better results of strength and flexibility against sedentary adolescents
