Análisis del perfil fisiológico y su impacto en el rendimiento físico de jugadores de baloncesto

Abstract

Objective:The objective of this study is to analyze and describe the physiological profile of a group of young basketball players. Materials and Methods: Through simple random probabilistic sampling, 25 participants were selected from different basketball teams in Valdivia, Chile. Age: 19.32±2.5 years; height: 1.79±0.08 meters; weight: 72.97±12.3 kg; body fat percentage: 24.03±2.5%; lean mass: 41.56±2.2%; VO2max: 54.32±2.5 ml/min/kg. They underwent various physical tests to describe their individual physiological status, including analysis of the ventilatory component, VO2max, Bosco test, strength profile (1RM, explosive strength with load), general endurance variables, and flexibility.Results:The results of this study provide detailed information on the physiological, biochemical, and performance profile of basketball players. Correlation analysis shows the following moderate relationships: VO2max/VCO2 (r = 0.9907, p < 0.001), VO2max/RMR (KG) (r = 0.2688, p = 0.194), VO2max/Flexibility (r = 0.2788, p = 0.177), VO2max/Wingate (r = 0.2184, p = 0.294), VO2max/CMJ (r = 0.2041, p = 0.328), SJ/Wingate (r = 0.50144, p = 0.011), SJ/Creatinine (r = 0.30367, p = 0.140), SJ/VO2 (r = 0.20413, p = 0.328), Wingate/RQ (r = 0.41225, p = 0.041). These relationships highlight the importance of considering multiple aspects of the physiological profile to design effective training programs and improve player performance.ConclusionsThis study highlights the importance of considering multiple aspects of the physiological profile when designing training programs for basketball players, optimizing their physical preparation for the specific demands of the sport and maximizing their athletic potential
