Measurement of body weight is an important measure of somatometry as a key indicator of young athletes’ growth and determines their developmental progress.

Measurement of body height is an important measure of somatometry as a key indicator of young athletes’ growth and determines their developmental progress.

Torso length, also known as sitting height, is an important index of growth and physiology of the athlete’s body. The relationship of the sitting height to the overall athlete’s stature indicates whether the individual’s arms and legs are long or short.

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure used to determine a person’s degree of obesity. Body Mass Index gives rise to four categories: Underweight – Normal –Overweight – Obese.

Back length is measured in centimeters. It is an indicative measurement in the context of the general recording of body proportions in relation to normal development.

The body mass index (BMI) is a value deriving from the weight-to-height ratio and is calculated as weight(kg) / height squared (m2).

Body fat is the total of lipids found in the tissues of the human body and it can be measured by lipometry. ATHLOMETRIX calculates body fat by measuring the fat at 2 points on the athlete’s body, on the triceps muscle and at the level of the back.

Lean body mass is calculated through specific formulas resulting from the proportion of an athlete’s total weight with his fat. This measurement indicates the percentage of the athlete’s muscle mass in relation to his total weight.

Waist circumference is a gauge of abdominal obesity, obtained by measuring the abdomen at the level of the superior iliac crest with a tape measure. A high waist circumference increases the risk of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and heart disease. WC is also useful for predicting two or more nonadipose components of metabolic syndrome.

The of The chest circumference measurement is an important growth index. The relationship of the chest circumference to the person’s stature indicates the tendency to grow in width or height. This correlation also reveals whether or not a person is barrel-chested.

The measurement of the arms extended sideways and raised parallel to the ground.

Waist-to-hip ratio shows the distribution of fat in the body and is a significant predictor of possible health risks

The right lower limb’s length is an important indicator of standard growth. In conjunction with the left leg’s length, any discrepancy may be recorded, which is often the main cause of injuries and abnormality of the lower limbs’ mechanical movement.

Thigh circumference is a basic index of the lower limb standard development. Thanks to this measurement, we can find out the muscular strength of the athlete’s leg in several cases.

Hip circumference is an important body measurement not only for indicating normal development but also for predicting health risks; the hip-to-waist ratio is used as an indicator of health problems.

Arm span-to-height ratio, calculated by dividing the arm span to the height, is an important indicator of standard growth.

The athlete’s shoe size is archived.

Hand breadth is the breadth of the hand measured at the level of the knuckles (metacarpal-phalangeal joints).

Measurement of the linear distance between the outside of the thumb to the outside of the little finger. This number is typically used as a gauge of natural advantage for sports that involve catching, throwing, tackling, or gripping.

Hand length is measured as the overall length of the hand from the wrist crease to the tip of the middle finger.
