Physical fitness is a quality of life for a general person but for a sportsman it can be evaluated and described as under. a, General physical fitness b. Specific physical fitness. The general physical fitness is the overall fitness of a sports man and includes all the physical fitness components or abilities such as strength, speed, endurance, agility, flexibility and body constitution, Whereas specific physical fitness refers to the fitness that fulfils that pre-conditional requirement of a particular sport or event especially physique, growth, health age and various physiological demands in relation to anthropometrical attributes ( Sodhi and Sidhu, 1984). In light weight category U-17 year, it was been found that Judokas and controls differed significantly in bone mass, muscle mass and fat mass except fat in heavy weight category only. Here it was found that Judokas were lesser in these components than there of the controls.

  6. This study will help his to know the body types of Judokas on the basis of anthropometric testing.
  7. Coaches and physical education teachers will be benefited from this study by knowing the speed strength, endurance flexibility and coordination of Judokas.

Methodology

Subjects for the study were selected from the Rajasthan State Junior Judo Championship of under-20 age category. Those Judokas who qualified for quarter finals in this championship were the part of this study. Their age was ascertained from the school records and subjects who came without the school record; their age was ascertained from other acceptable records.

The data of the present study was collected under the following two heads:-

  1. Anthropometric Measurements
  2. Physical Fitness Variables

The standardized techniques were followed to obtain the following kin anthropometric measurement and Physical Fitness variables.  

Weight Categories –

  1. Light Weight Category = up to and including 60 kg.
  2. Middle Weight Category = over 60 kg and including 75 kg.
  3. Heavy Weight Category = over 75 and including 100 kg.

 FORMATION OF AGE GROUPS


In the study, the Judokas of two age groups viz under-17 and under--20 were examined for their kin-anthropometrics characteristics and their physical fitness test. A total number of 85 Judokas were examined in the age group under-17 and 33 Judokas were studied in the age group under-20. Total number of Judokas was 118.

Distribution of Judokas U-17 Years (N=85) and U-20 Year (N=33)

Enclosed as Annexure 01

A total of 27 control subject were studied in the age group under-17 and 23 control subjects were studied in the age group under-20

Distribution of Control U-17 Years (N=27) and U--20 Year (N=23)

Enclosed as Annexure 02

Derived Variables:-

  1. Height Weight Ratio :-

H.W. Ratio = Height (cm.)/ (Weight kg.)½

  1. Body Mass Index :-

BMI = Weight (kg.)/(Height mt.)2

  1. Body Composition :-
  • To estimate the body fat body density has been calculated by using Durnin and Womerseley’s (1974)

Equation as mentioned below

Body density for males (age group) = 1.1610-0.632 log (biceps + triceps+ sub scapular + supra iliac skin folds)

Body density calculates with the help of mentioned equation was converted to present body fat by using the formula by brozek et.al. (1963)  or Siris equation (1956) i.e.

                        Percentage body fat = [(4.457/body density) - 4.142] X 100

(ii)       To estimate muscle and bone masses, Matiegka’s (1921) formula has been used. The bone mass calculated by using the following equation.

                        Weight of bone or OSSA (in kg)

= {(HB+KB+WB+AB)/4}2 X HT. X 1.2 X0.001

                        When HB = the maximum diameter of Humorous (cm)

                                    FB = the maximum diameter of Femur (cm)

                                    WB = the maximum diameter of Wrist (cm)

                                    AB = the maximum diameter of Ankle (cm)

                                    HT = the body height of the subject

(iii)       Muscle Mass: - The muscle mass was estimated by using the formula given by Matiegka’s (1921)

                        Muscle Mass (kg)=[CDU + CDV + CDT + CDC/4]2 x HT(cm)x6.5 x 0.001

Where CDU = max. Upper arm girth            - Bicep sf (cm)           + Triceps

                                                p                                  2                                  2

            CDF = max. Fore arm girth    - forearm sf (cm)

                                                p                                    2

CGT = mid. Thigh girth          - mid thigh sf (cm) 

                                                p                                  2         

            CDC = max. Calf girth             - mid calf sf (cm)

                                    p                                    2       

Remainder mass

RM = weight (kg) – Bone mass – Muscle Mass - fat mass

TOOLS USED

Anthropometric Measurement

A total of twenty anthropometric measurements were taken on each subject following the standardized techniques of Martin & Seller (1957) and Sodhi (1991) The investigator had sufficient training of taking anthropometric measurement before starting the present research investigation.

            The following anthropometric measurements were taken on each subject with care and precision:-


  1. Age (years)
  2. Body Weight (Kg)

III.           Body Height (cm)

  1. Hummers bicodylar diameter (cm)
  2. Wrist Width (cm)
  3. Femur bicondylar diameter (cm)

VII.          Ankle Width (cm)

VIII.         Upper arm circumference (flexed) (cm)

  1. Upper arm circumference (relaxed) (cm)
  2. Fore arm (Cir. )              (cm)
  3. Thigh "          (cm)

XII.          Calf               "                      (cm)

XIII.         Biceps Skin folds    (mm)

XIV.        Triceps         "          (mm)

  1. Fore arm "          (mm)

XVI.        Sub scapular "        (mm)

XVII.       Supra iliac     "         (mm)

XVIII.      Supra spinal "         (mm)

XIX.         Thigh            "          (mm)

  1. Calf "          (mm)

Above measurements helped to find out various lengths, breadths, circumferences, indices and proportions of the body of male Judokas. Further, various components of body composition viz. muscle mass, fat mass, bone mass and remainder was also assessed by studying the above measurements. Heath Carter (1967) method was used to evaluate the physique of each male Judoka player.  Kroop's type weighting machine was used for taking the body weight of the subject. The linear measurement was taken with anthropometric rod. All widthwise measurements were taken with the sliding caliper. All circumferences were measured with the help of steel tape. The skin fold was measured with the help of skin fold caliper.

Physical Fitness Variables:-

A total of seven performance tests were administered to evaluate the performance level of subjects. The list indicating the name of performance test along with its application was:-

Name of the Performance Test-                 Application

  1. 30 meters :           Speed
  1. Standing Broad Jump :           Explosive Strength of Legs.
  2. Forward Bend and Reach :           Trunk Flexibility
  3. Pull-ups :           Strength Endurance of arms
  4. 6 x 10 m Shuttle run :           Co-ordination / Agility
  5. 60 Meter Dash :           Endurance
  6. J.M.G. :           Force Resistance in terms of 

                                                                                    Speed under the condition a

                                                                                    Mixture of aerobic and

                                                                                    Anaerobic energy.

All these test comes under AAPHER test of battery
(except the test at No. 7) and were applied by observing the standardized procedures. All the subjects and concerned officials were given prior information regarding the tests being conducted.

Test J.M.G., Jose Mannel, GARCIA (NANO)

The test is composed of three exercises, each lasting one minute (total three minutes). The aim of the test is to measure force resistance in terms of speed under the condition of obtaining a mixture of aerobic/anaerobic energy.

                 The test subject must try to execute the highest number of repetitions possible of each exercise without rest between one exercise and another.

EXERCISES: The Tunnel, Sit-ups (abdominals), Jumping from one side to the other of a bench (the bench is 30cm in height).

Analysis

The test JMG is an evaluation technique specifically designed for those sports where force resistance at speed is an important element of the sport as is the capacity to carry this out effectively.

The test is based on the capacity to produce a mixture of aerobic and anaerobic energy and to correlate of obtaining energy with force resistance at speed while performing the three exercises that make up the test lasting three minutes. (One minute for each exercise).


On studying the recuperation curve that follows the test an indicator of the aerobic capacity of the test subject can be seen as well as the other results obtained during the recuperation period. (Three minutes following the end of the test)

The following data are necessary to establish the ratio JMG.

P1 -  Cardiac rate at the moment of finishing the test.

P2 -     Cardiac rate a minute after finishing the test.

N0 Rpt -Number of complete repetitions executed. (The total of the three exercises)

Kg -      Weight in kilograms

Age -   Age of test subject

The following equations are used when obtaining the ratio JMG.

A =      [(P1+P2)/2] - (n0 rpt +Kg/2)

B =       [K- (P1-P2)/2] - (n0 rpt +Kgs/2)

Thus resulting in the ration JMG = (A+B)/2

K is considered to be a constant (220-age) In different studies carried on elite sportsmen there was a tendency for this factor to be the number 200.

The results of the ratio JMG give a clear idea of the functional state of the competitor from the point of view of the above mentioned facts. Negative results of the ratio JMG (for example-30) indicate a good aptitude of force resistance at speed while obtaining aerobic - anaerobic energy. On the contrary, positive results (for example +30) give us an indication of poor aptitude.

The following results give us an idea of the degree of aptitude:

>-50                Excellent

 -40                 Very good

-30                  Good                                         

-10                  Quit good          

  0                    Fair       

+30                 Bad                 

+10                 Not very good                                  

>+50               Very bad

This test has been used since 1982 and has been included in the testing of performance in many National Federations especially Judo. The results coincide favorably with various laboratory controls and remain true with the specific performance of Judokas in competitions of the highest category. It is difficult to find Judaist evaluated during a competitive period being winners of important competitions with a test result of below - 50.

Breaking down the equations necessary to obtain the ratio JMG we can see that in equation A, the values that give us the factor (P1+P2)/2 are going to be related with the intensity of workload evolved by the test subject during the test. This refers to an element relative to the intensity on the test.

The element "n0 rpt"(number of repetitions) refers to the capacity of the muscles to resist highly intense activity for the three minutes that the test lasts, under a situation of aerobic/ anaerobic energy production. Thus we are given a subjective idea of the level of coordination and agility of the sportsman during the test.

The first factor of equation B, [K- (P1-P2)/2], indicated the results related to the recuperation capacity of the test subject. This information can be seen to a greater extent if the cardiac rate recovery curve and the "rlx" of the test subject during the recovery period (three minutes) at the end of the test are studied.

The two equations combined show that the test, apart from showing us the aspects already described, give us an indication of the capacity of resistance of the subject, particularly of his/her mixed resistance, Therefore the test is appropriate for noncyclical action and team sports based on a resistance of base 3 as a test of resistance it is more specific for being based on non-cyclic exercises rather than on cyclic actions that are found specifically in sports such as running, cycling or rowing.

Finally, this test is usually accompanied by a valuation of the fatigue level of the subject showing itself at the end of the test on the Borg Scale.

STATISTICAL PROCEDURE

The raw data, which are given in appendix were statistically treated for the following tests


in order to observe reliability, significance etc. with and within different variables:-

  1. Mean, Standard Deviation
  2. Test of Significance (‘t’ test)
  3. ANOVA and Post Hoc Test (between different weight categories of Judokas

Analysis of Data and Results of the Study

The Results of the present study have been discussed as:

  • In light weight category U-17 year, it was been found that Judokas and controls differed significantly in bone mass, muscle mass and fat mass except fat in heavy weight category only. Here it was found that Judokas   were lesser in these components than there of the controls.
  • Light, middle and heavy weight categories of U-17 years Judokas did not differ in height weight and HWR except light weight category in HWR only where as controls were found to be lighter than Judokas  .
  • Judokas in general did not differ from controls in somatotype components in U-17 weight category except ectomorphy in light weight category and endomorphy in heavy weight category. Here Judokas were lesser than there of controls.
  • It was found that combined Judokas U-17 weight category did not differ in HWR, bone mass, muscle mass, fat mass and somatotype components from there of controls.
  • Light, middle and heavy weight categories of U-20 years Judokas were not different from controls. Except height and HWR in middle weight category, it was found that controls were taller and lighter than Judokas  .
  • Light, middle and heavy weight categories Judokas of U-20 years had not been different from control in bone mass, muscle mass, fat mass and somatotype components except  ectomorphy and mesomorphy in middle weight category only than that of control.
  • 20 years Judokas when taken together did not differ from controls except in ectomorphy. The findings revealed that Judokas   were lesser at this component than the controls.
  • It was found that Judokas light weight category
  • of U-17 and U-20 age groups were the youngest and of middle weight category were the oldest. This study had formed that the weight of Judokas   increase in order of ascending order of weight category and the same results were given by control group when the height was considered. Judokas   have found to be shorter than control groups in both age and all the weight categories.

On 30meter run, results had shown the contradiction to the hypothesis of study where Judokas   were found to be very poor on speed. When pull up results were taken Judokas had performed significantly better on 6×10 meter shutter run than control groups. U-17 middle weight category Judokas are found to be poor on FBR which meant poor trunk flexibility and hamstring stretch ability. This study reveled that the explosive leg strength of Judokas and control group remained almost the same. The study revealed that heavy weight category Judokas of U-17 and U-20 had shown poor results on 600 meter and JMG respectively.
