Abstract

Today, a change in lifestyle from active to inactive has begun to occur, especially in the lifestyle of modern society. This research was a correlational study with survey research methods or self-reported questionnaires. The research population was for about 60 members of HSC Fitness Center, Yogyakarta State University taken by a random sampling technique. Meanwhile, the research instrument used to measure the level of physical activity was the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) developed by the World Health Organization and the percentage of body fat was measured by using the Body Impedance Analysis (BIA) tool. Furthermore, the data analysis was performed by using the Pearson Product Correlation test. The results show that there is a correlation with a significant negative direction on the level of physical activity and body fat percentage of the members of HSC Fitness Center, Yogyakarta State University with a Pearson Product Correlation coefficient of -0.760, and with a significance value of 0.00 < 0.05. Through this research, the research results obtained can be used as information for the wider community, especially those with the excessive body fat percentages so that they pay more attention to their daily physical activities and so they can achieve a healthy body fat percentage.

Abstract

Anthropometry is a science created from a new scientific sub-discipline called physical anthropology which is an implication of the development of anthropological studies. Anthropometry plays a very important role in the world of sports. An ideal anthropometric composition and supported by good technique will produce an athlete's excellent performance in the competition. Anthropometric characteristics, body composition and mass contribute to training and competition performance. Therefore, researchers have developed a multifunctional anthropometric measurement tool, several test items can be carried out simultaneously with the use of this tool, this tool is called 'Multiantro". The tests that can be done simultaneously with this tool are height, weight, sitting height and arm length tests. However, this tool still requires further review, so this study is intended to conduct a concurrent validity test phase of the Multiantro tool so that the results of its measurement can be accounted for. The method used was a cross-sectional design in which data from two instruments, a new instrument and a standardized instrument, were then collected at the same time from the same sample. The new instrument was tested to determine whether the results were consistent with the standardized measurement tool. The analysis results show that there is no significant difference between measurements using the Multiantro tool and measurements using conventional tools that have been standardized before. So it can be concluded that the Multiantro tool is also reliable in anthropometric measurements, just as when using previously existing tools. Even with this tool, tests can be carried out more practically because one tool is used to carry out four different types of test items.

Abstract

Flexibility and injury prevention are essential aspects of athlete performance and health. This article aims to present a literature review on the effect of stretching techniques on flexibility and sports injuries. The literature review was conducted by analyzing relevant previously published studies.The literature review identified factors influencing flexibility, including age, gender, and type of sports activity. The literature review also highlighted the benefits of stretching in improving flexibility and preventing sports injuries. Various approaches to stretching techniques were discussed, such as static stretching, dynamic stretching, PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation), and other methods.However, there is controversy surrounding the effectiveness of stretching in preventing sports injuries. Some studies suggest that pre-exercise stretching can reduce the risk of injury, while others suggest that excessive static stretching can reduce muscle strength and exercise performance.The results from the literature review also highlighted the differences in research results regarding the effect of stretching on flexibility and injury. Some studies found a positive association between stretching and increased flexibility, while the results of other studies showed no significant association.In the discussion, this article analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of stretching techniques found in the literature. The implications of these findings can help coaches and athletes design efficacious and safe stretching programs.In conclusion, stretching techniques are essential in improving flexibility and may affect preventing sports injuries. However, more research is needed to understand better the mechanisms of stretching techniques' effects on flexibility and sports injuries. Hopefully, this article can provide valuable insights for sports practitioners and researchers to understand better the role of stretching in sports and athlete health.
