Abstract

The objective of this research was to establish the relationship between the waist-to-height ratio with the handgrip strength of 5-year-old Colombian preschoolers. A descriptive correlational study was conducted with a quantitative approach and a convenience sample consisting of 44 men and 34 women with 5 years of age and belonging to the preschool grades of the Guaimaral Technical Institute of the City of Cúcuta. A CAMRY dynamometer (grip strength up to 200 lb/90 kg, division 0,2 lb/100 g) was used for the assessment of the handgrip strength. The statistical analysis was carried out in the statistical package PSPP (95% confidence and p-value of 0,05) in which the Shapiro-Wilk normality test was applied, as well as the correlational coefficient of Spearman and Pearson. The normality test indicated that the waist-to-height ratio of girls did not obtain normal distribution (p<0,05), while boys obtained normal distribution of all variables (p>0,05), in girls the ratio was low (r = -0,10 to 0,06) and in boys it was positive (r = 0,14 to 0,22) but for no case was it significant (p>0,05). It is concluded that the waist-to-height ratio is not significantly related to the handgrip strength in Colombian preschoolers.
