摘要：Ribeiro BG, Mota HR, Sampaio-Jorge F, Morales AP, Leite TC. Correlation between Body Composition and the Performance of Vertical Jumps in Basketball Players. JEPonline 2015;18(5):69-78. The purpose of this study was to correlate the variables of body composition with the performance of the vertical jump performed by professional basketball players. The subjects consisted of 11 male athletes from the National Basketball League First Division team. The athletes were between 25 and 37 yrs of age. Their height ranged from 175 to 205 cm with a body mass of 74.2 to 121.6 kg. For analysis of body composition, a BIA unit 450 Bio impedance Analyzer (Biodynamic Corp. USA) was used. The Vertical Jump was carried out with a Jump Platform, Optical System (Cefise, São Paulo). A strong negative correlation (r = -0.8) was found for the variable relative power (W·kg-1) and fat mass (%). A strong positive correlation (r = 0.8; P<0.05) was found for the variable fat free mass (%) and relative power (W·kg-1), and a strong positive correlation (r = 0.94; P<0.05) between the variable relative power (W·kg-1) and flight time (ms). We conclude that basketball players with a lower fat percentage and greater lean mass showed better performance in vertical jumps suggesting that body composition can be considered an indirect predictor of performance.
