Abstract

Purpose. The purpose of the study was to determine the distinctive features of somatometric indicators of women 25-34 years old with different types of posture.

Material & Methods. The scientific study involved 36 women aged 25-34 years (25-29 years (n=18), 30-34 years (n=18)). The tasks defined in the course of the study were solved using generally accepted methods: theoretical analysis of scientific literature on the selected research topic, the Torso program was used to determine the types of posture, anthropometry. All data obtained in the empirical study were processed using mathematical statistics methods.

Results. It has been established that women aged 25-29 years have more pronounced anthropometric differences, which may be associated with structural features. The fact that women with scoliotic posture have a greater body length and lower Quetelet and Rohrer indices may indicate a tendency towards a taller and slimmer physique, which is typical for scoliotic posture, where vertical "stretching" of the spine may occur. These characteristics of younger women may be important for developing exercises aimed at correcting posture and strengthening the muscular corset, which will help prevent further development of scoliosis or other disorders. As for women aged 30-34, less pronounced or absent statistical differences may be due to the fact that with age, anthropometric parameters become less sensitive to the influence of posture type due to general changes in the body, such as decreased muscle mass and changes in metabolism. There is also a version that the influence of the type of posture on physical characteristics may decrease with age due to the body's adaptation to long-term postural loads or habituation to a certain lifestyle and physical activity. Such data are important for understanding how age and structural features affect physical development and health, as well as for planning appropriate health measures for mature women with different types of posture.

Conclusions. The practical aspects of the scientific work presented above will be the basis for the theoretical justification and implementation of corrective and preventive measures in the process of health fitness classes for women in the first period of mature age.
