Abstract

The somatotyping character of uzbek adults aged 20 to 69 was analysed in a sample (inclu-)(ding) 201 subjects (110 males and 91 females) by the Health-Carter somatotyping method. The results showed that mean somatotype of males was the endo-mesomorph category(3.7—5.1—2.0) and that of females was the meso-endomorph category(5.9—4.9—1.4). Before 60 years old, there was a tendency of change in somatotype ratings. The tendency was related to the growth of age, decreased in ectomorphic component and increased in other two components. In this stage, there was very significant sexual difference in the somatotype. Compared with the data home and abroad, it is shown that the mesomorphic component obviously dominanct in Uzbek female group. And the somatotype of males was similar to Canadian.
