Baremación de agilidad en estudiantes jóvenes aparentemente sanos y físicamente activos del pregrado en cultura física, deporte y recreación de la universidad santo tomás (sede campus)

Abstract

The evaluation of agility is a test that is frequently performed to recognize the coordination, speed and strength of apparently healthy subjects, but it is currently a test lacking baremación for the Colombian population, which means that there is no reliable parameter to evaluate it . For this reason a scale is established based on an agility test applied to apparently healthy and physically active young people, students of the Santo Tomas University (Campus Campus). Methodology. A quantitative, descriptive and transversal design study was carried out. The sample was randomly selected, informed consent, clinical history and a test denominated 10x5 were applied. Results. The times obtained for the first measurement oscillate in a range of 19’’11 - 37’’57 (DS ± 2.34) and for the second measurement time ranges between 18’15 - 30’’80 (DS ± 2,14). Conclusions. It is necessary to have a larger sample size, to insist on the rigorousness during the application and measurement of the test, as well as on the possible incidence of the corporal composition on the results. The subjects should consider the training and maintenance of agility, to denote improvements in it.
