Abstract
Levels of fatness associated with elite performance in various sports have been identified. Such fatness levels can serve as guidelines for participants in various sport programs who wish to achieve a desired best competing weight. Steps to be taken to decrease body fat levels are detailed. In addition, modification of body composition by increasing weight through increases in muscle mass becomes important in many sports. A program of muscle weight gain is described. Verf.-Referat
