Abstract

The research has been carried out on 23 male rowers from Novi Sad, 'Danubius 1885' oarsmen club. The sample was composed from 4 seniors, 11 juniors and 8 cadets, between 14 and 22 years of age. Average age was 16 and the training period was average 2 years. Morphologic features were estimated by following anthropometric measures: body height, body weight, circumferences of right and left upper arms, circumferences of right and left upper legs. The measurements were taken according to the International Biologic Programs (Weiner & Lourie, 1969). The estimation of posture, by the method of N.Wolansky, included following variables: posture of head, shoulders scapulas; deviations of backbone in frontal plane; abdominal line control shape of legs and feet = giving the total mark of postural status. All variables are confirmed with stepwise multiple regression. The research results proved that a small sample of 23 rowers, mostly juniors, with an average training of 2 years, in spite of registered deviations, does not show significant influence on postural status, in comparison with the morphologic space.
