Bioimpedance analysis of age changes in body composition

The paper aims to provide a comparative analysis of body composition in males of different age groups. Material and methods. The research was conducted at the ORANGE FITNESS sports company in Naberezhnye Chelny (Russia). The measurements were performed with the ABC01-0362 program for body composition analysis intended for the ABC-01 Medass system for electrical potential measurements (Medass, Russia). Anthropometric data of the subjects were obtained. The results of the study were analyzed with statistical methods. Results. The dynamics of changes in body composition was obtained for males (n = 3391) of different age groups. The indicators of body mass, fat mass, and skeletal muscle mass were studied. The age changes of the abovementioned indicators were revealed with respect to the motor activity of the subjects. Conclusion. The study of body composition remains relevant. On the one hand, this is required to improve the effectiveness of PE classes, on the other hand, such a study creates conditions for public health monitoring and sports management depending on the levels of the indicators obtained. The main idea is to promote sports and physical activity among young people, as well as to enhance public health by increasing the importance of a healthy lifestyle.
