摘要：The aim of this study was to determine the possibility of predicting isometric endurance of the lumbar and abdominal musculature based on a sample of 199 boys, aged 7 to 10, who had an average height of 136.67cm (SD±8.65) and average weight of 33.83 kg (SD±8.45). The predictor set of variables consisted of anthropometric characteristics, and the criterion set of variables consisted of isometric endurance of the lumbar and abdominal musculature. The following variables were used to evaluate the anthropometric characteristics: body height, leg length, arm length, length of the upper arm, height while seated, shoulder width, pelvic width, knee diameter, body weight, average thorax volume, abdominal volume, hip volume, upper leg volume and calf volume. The following tests were used to evaluate the isometric endurance of the lumbar and abdominal musculature: the Biering-Sorensen test of endurance for the lumbar extensors, the endurance test for the lateral flexors of the torso, and the endurance tests for the flexors of the torso. The obtained data was processed by means of a regression analysis. The results and the discussion led us to the conclusion that there is a statistically significant correlation between the anthropometric characteristics and the endurance of the lumbar extensors and lateral flexors, and that the multiple correlation between the anthropometric characteristics and the endurance of the abdominal musculature is not statistically significant.
