What significance do the results of the study “morphological evolution in Cuban sporting population, 1970-2014” have?
Main Article Content
Abstract
The Anthropological Research “Morphological evolution in the Cuban sporting population in the period 1970-2010. Implications for its kinanthropometric evaluation” won the Annual Award of Sciences, Technology, Innovation and Environment of the INDER "José Yánez Ordaz" (2019) and Annual Award of the National Commission of Scientific Degree for Best Doctoral Thesis in the Category of Education Sciences ( 2020) ; however, the scope of this result for the Cuban sports movement has not been sufficiently socialized in the community of Physical Culture Sciences as it has happened in the National Network of Sports Medicine. The focus of this paper was to contribute to understanding of the morphological evolution of the Cuban athletic population and its consequences. A historical analysis was carried out, based on the antecedents of the anthropometric studies of athletes in Cuba, which constituted the “Normal Science”; subsequently, the theoretical support that led to the investigation were exposed; then, the results achieved and their impact on the practice of Cuban Kinanthropometry today were described. The results found represent a paradigm shift in the practice of Kinanthropometry within the framework of Biomedical Control of Training in national teams.
