چکیده مقاله :
Background: It is widely believed today that the role of a coach has evolved beyond merely directing training sessions. Coaches are now expected to possess diverse skills in tactical, technical, psychological, physical fitness, and interpersonal, social, and personality domains. The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between cardiac function and body composition in basketball coaches.
Methods: In this causal-comparative study, 60 basketball coaches participating in the national high school championships (for both girls and boys) in 2023 (1402 Iranian calendar) were selected as the statistical sample. On the first day of the competition, following the opening session, the study procedures, benefits, and strengths were explained in a pre-scheduled meeting, and volunteers were registered. The next day, demographic questionnaires were distributed among the volunteer coaches and collected after completion. Then, cardiac waves and body composition were measured using an electrocardiogram (ECG) and a body composition analyzer, respectively. Pearson correlation coefficient was used for inferential data analysis (P ≤ 0.05).
Results: Significant correlations were found between heart rate and protein mass (P=0.04), between QRS wave and fat mass (P=0.04), and between PQ interval and both protein mass (P=0.01) and lean body mass (P=0.01).
Conclusion: It appears that cardiac performance in basketball coaches is influenced by body composition.
