o:26058 Relationship between the 30-second Burpee test variation and anthropometric and motor dimensions in female university students Povezanost 30-sekundne različice Burpeejevega testa zantropometričnimi inmotoričnimi spremenljivkami pri študentkah en ABSTRACT: The 3-minute Burpee test has been widely reported in the literature, however the motor abilities assessed by the 30-second Burpee test (30SBT) variation are not clearly defined. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the 30SBT and components of physical fitness, including anthropometric and motor characteristics, in the study participants. The sample consisted of 75 female students of Teacher Education Faculty, University of Belgrade. Pearson ́s correlation coefficient showed that 30SBT was negatively related to body height (r = -0.529, p < 0.01) and body mass (r = -0.350, p < 0.01) as anthropometric variables, and also positively correlated with body coordination (r = 0.517, p < 0.01), agility (r = 0.380, p < 0.01), upper-body (r = 0.373, p < 0.01) and trunk strength (r = 0.257,both p < 0.05) and flexibility (r = 0.259, p < 0.05) as motor abilities.However, when we applied a regression analysis, the best-fit model demonstrated a clear significant causal relationship only between measures of body height and burpee test scores (R² = 0.279, p < 0.01) and also between burpee test performance with coordination and agility (R² = 0.313, p < 0.01). This findings suggest that the effectiveness of the 30-second Burpee test is highly dependent on motor abilities such as coordination and agility, and that body height has a negative impact on Burpee test performance. Given that the test is time-efficient and also economically and organizationally practical, the authors suggest that the 30-second Burpee variation should be implemented in physical education classes to assess motor dimensions of preschool, school, and university populations. IZVLEČEK: Kljub temu da je o 3-minutnem Burpee testu v literaturi že veliko napisanega, motoričnih sposobnosti, ocenjenih s 30-sekundno različico Burpeejevega testa (30SBT), še niso jasno opredeljene. Cilj te študije je bil raziskati povezavo med 30SBT in komponentami telesne pripravljenosti, vključno z antropometričnimi in motoričnimi značilnostmi. Vzorec je sestavljalo 75 študentk iz Pedagoške fakultete, Univerze v Beogradu. Pearsonov korelacijski koeficient je pokazal, da je 30SBT negativno povezan s telesno višino (r = -0,529, p <0,01) in maso (r = -0,350, p <0,01) ter pozitivno povezan s koordinacijo (r = 0,517, p <0,01), okretnostjo (r = 0,380, p <0,01), močjo zgornjega dela telesa (r = 0,373, p <0,01), močjo trupa (r = 0,257, oba p <0,05) in gibljivostjo (r = 0,259 , p <0,05). Najustreznejši model regresijske analize, je pokazal pomembno vzročno zvezo le med meritvami telesne višine in rezultati burpee testa (R² = 0,279, p <0,01) ter med uspešnostjo burpee testa z usklajenostjo in gibljivostjo (R² = 0,313, p <0,01). Ugotovitve pričujoče študije nakazujejo, da je učinkovitost 30-sekundnega Burpee testa odvisna od gibalnih sposobnosti, kot sta koordinacija in gibljivost, ter da telesna višina negativno vpliva na uspešnost Burpee testa. Glede na to, da je test časovno učinkovit ter tudi ekonomsko in organizacijsko praktičen, avtorji predlagajo, da je treba 30-sekundno različico Burpeeja uporabiti pri pouku športne vzgoje, z namenom ocene motoričnih spremenljivk predšolske, šolske in univerzitetne populacije.
