The Relationship Of Some Anthropometric Measurements To Balance And The Level Of Technical Performance On The Balance Beam Among Gymnastics Female Students

The current study examined the relationship of some anthropometric measurements to balance and the level of technical performance on the balance beam among gymnastics female students. To achieve this purpose, a descriptive approach was employed. The study sample consisted of (22) gymnastics female students selected from the Faculty of Physical Education at Yarmouk University in the 2nd semester of 2020/2021 academic year. The results of the study revealed a negative correlation between the dynamic balance and anthropometric measurements (body height, body weight, the length of lower half of the body and body mass index "BMI"); a negative correlation between the static balance and each of (body height and the length of lower half of the body); a positive correlation between the static balance and each of (body weight and BMI), and a negative correlation between the level of technical performance and each of (body height, body weight, the length of lower half of the body and BMI) among gymnastics female students at Yarmouk University.
