The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation of BMI and physical fitness in high school girls. The subjects were high school girls(n=295).
The measurement items are physical fitness, physique, physique index(BMI : Body Mass Index).
The conclusion of this study was as follows;
1. The record of 100M sprint, standing long jump, and sit ups showed a slack downward curve(low record) as BMI rises.
2. The record of softball showed a slack upward curve(high record) as BMI rises.
3. The record of 800M run, sit-ups and softball throw, from the top to the bottom.
4. The order of correlation between BMI and physical fitness was, flexed-arm hang, 100M sprint, standing long jump, 800M run, sit-ups and softball throw, from the top to the bottom.
Therefore, we concluded that correlation BMI and physical fitness showed not so high.
