The instruments included anthropometric measurement tests and gymnastics performance tests referring to the Code of Points (COP) set by the International Federation of Gymnastics (FIG). The results showed that there was a significant correlation between anthropometric profiles and the athlete performance. The effects of anthropometric correlation variables were height of 0.678, weight of 0.487, BMI of -0.777, LiLA of 0.605, and abdominal circumference of -0.513. The results obtained the significance level of height on exercise performance of .003 0.05, body weight on exercise performance of .047 0.05, BMI on exercise performance of 0 0.05, upper arm circumference on exercise performance of .010 0.05, and circumference of abdomen on exercise performance of .035 0.05.
