Abstract

In this study, spinal abnormalities of FEMALE subjects, including TRACK AND FIELD athletes and former athletes, were investigated. 22 subjects (mean age 25.76 ± 6.67), were selected non-randomly and divided into two groups; Group 1 :athletes (n= 13); and Group 2: former athletes (n=9). Data collection was done through questionnaires and physical examinations. Information in questionnaires included; personal characteristics; athletic history; medical records, habitual movements and exercise patterns. Height. weight. skinfold, and arm and leg girths were measured using standard techinques and devices. The Heath-Carter Somatotype Rating Form and New York Test were used to determine the body type and the posture of subjects. A pilot study was also perfomed: Data were analyzed by statistical method of Chi Square Test; and the following were concluded: In athlete group, 58.04% and in former athletes 43.43% had normal posture. There was a significant difference (P≤0.05) in ptosis between athlete and former athlete subjects. Training 1-3 times per week is better than 4-6 times per week for athletes.In general former athletes had higher rate of abnormalities than the other group including control group. In conclusion, hjgh rate of spinal abnormalities of subjects, especially. in former athletes, reemphasised the Qeed for athletes to follow-up with corrective exercises through his or her life. These exercises should be also prescribed according to the special sport demand for athletes to keep the spinal alignment normal.
