Sažetak
A group of young perspectice female athletes was tested for heart volume, 17 anthropometric variables were measured, as well 7 physiological functional values 4 dynamometric variables. The study was carried out in the period between 1980 and 1984. The average value for the absolute heart volume was 688±122 ml, and the relative heart volume was 11.3±1.4 ml/kg, which is above the values of untrained healthy girls. The average value of maximum oxygen intake was 2655±503 ml O2, while the relative maximum oxygen intake was 44.6±7.5 ml O2/kg which was also above the value obtained in healthy untrained girls. In order to establish whether the kind of sport has any effect upon the individual variables, the analyses of variance was carried out. It was established that the observed differences among five groups, formed according to the groups of sports, were not statistically significant for most of the anthropometric variables. Differences significant on the 5% level were observed only with measures of bycrystal range, circumference of the upper arm, circumference of the lower arm and elbow diameter. Significant differences (on 5% level) were found with all respiratory values (vital capacity, second capacity, minute respiratory volume) while the maximum and relative intake of oxygen differend on the level of significance of 1% with respect to different sports activities. There are differences between the absolute heart volume and all three relative volumes on the level of 1%. It can therefore, be concluded taht individual groups of female athletes much more differ with respect to physiological and functional indicators and size of the heart, than with respect to anthropometric variables.
