Abstract
The purpose of the study was to analyze the body Fat Percentage (F %), Body mass index (BMI) and Body Impedance (BI) in university sports women and non-sports women. Data was collected from 100 women (50-sports women & 50- non-sports women) of Kurukshetra University and ages of the subjects were from 18-25 years. Body composition parameters were assessed using “Maltron Model BF-907” body composition analyzer made in U.K. The result of the study revealed that level of Body Fat Percentage (FP) present in the sports women (M - 23.04 ± 3.38) and Non sports women (M – 32.01 ± 4.49) differ significantly at P < 0.01 (t value – 11. 26). Similarly, a significant difference was found in the Level of Body Impedance (BI) present in the sports women (M– 661.92±76.06) and Non sports women (M–739.9±79.76) at P<0.01(t - 5.00). Whereas, no significant difference was found in Body Mass Index (BMI) sports women (M – 21.26±3.178) and non sports women (M–20.04±3.172). Conclusion: A significant difference was found in the Body Fat Percentage (FP) and Body Impedance (BI) between sportswomen and non sports women.
