Changes in Anthropometry and Selected Metabolic Parameters in Young Men During Their First Year of Study at a University of Physical Education

Abstract: This study aims to determine main health-related anthropometric and metabolic parameters in young physically active male students in their first year of study. Sixty one male students from a Polish university of physical education were studied twice–at the beginning of their first and second academic years.

In our study, subgroup C cultivated a typical student lifestyle, which was characterized by a tendency to consume smaller amounts of energy ingredients than subgroups WL, SP as well as TT.…”
