Abstract

The present study investigated the differences in body composition and muscular performance of Malaysian young male state level weightlifting, cycling and squash athletes. Forty-four participants (mean age: 17.1 ± 1.6 years old) were divided into sedentary control, weightlifting, cycling and squash groups with 11 participants for each group. Participants’ body composition, hand grip strength, back and leg strength as well as resting heart rate and blood pressure were determined. One way ANOVA was performed for statistical analysis. The present study found that weightlifting group exhibited statistically significant higher body weight (p < 0.001) compared to cycling and sedentary control group. Weightlifting group also showed higher percentage of body fat and fat-free mass (p < 0.05) when compared to the cycling group, and higher fat-free mass (p < 0.01) than the sedentary control group. In addition, weightlifting athletes showed significantly greater hand grip strength (p < 0.01), as well as back and leg strength (p < 0.01) compared to sedentary controls, cycling and squash athletes. Cyclists had lower resting heart rate compared to weightlifting and squash athletes. The present study findings implying that body composition and muscular performance of the athletes are dependent on sports events they were involved in.
