Abstract
Body composition plays a significant role in canoeing performance, particularly muscle mass, which is crucial for strength development. Despite its importance, few studies have detailed the body composition of world-class canoeists, including world champions and Olympic medalists. This study aims to describe the anthropometric characteristics, body composition, and somatotype of two world champion and Olympic medalist canoeists.
