Abstract
The components of body composition were studied in 56 seccond class rugbyunion football players: 28 forwards and 28 backs. Forwards were found to have19,5 TBF (total body fat) and 80.5 LBM (lean body mass); backs 12.2 TBFand 87.8 LBM. It was felt that greater attention should be given to theratio of TBF to LBM in determining body weight and that there should be anincreased emphasis of the LBM at the expense of TBF. Verf.-Referat
