Overview

Randomized trial examines aerobic capacity and flexibility in bodybuilders, suggesting the need for training integration.

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore the relationships between flexibility, aerobic capacity, age, and training experience among bodybuilders.
  • Examined 15 male Algerian bodybuilders from Batna Province.
  • Assessed aerobic capacity with the Luc Léger 20-m shuttle run test and flexibility through sit-and-reach and back-scratch tests.
  • Conducted correlational analyses to identify relationships among the variables.
  • Showed moderate aerobic capacity but low to moderate flexibility.
  • No statistically significant correlations were found between VO2max, flexibility, age, or training duration (p > 0.05).
  • Trends indicated flexibility may decline with age and improve with longer training, though they were not statistically significant.
