### Description Module

**Brief Summary:** Sport specialization requires an understanding of morphological variability to optimize performance. However, the current literature lacks a detailed analysis of the anthropometric profile of track and field athletes, especially in Latin America. Additionally, the five-way fractionation method of body mass has been under-documented. These gaps highlight the need for more research to maximize the potential of athletes, particularly in emerging countries like Mexico. This study aims to determine the anthropometric characteristics of elite and Olympic Mexican track and field athletes. A descriptive cross-sectional study will be conducted. Forty-three anthropometric variables will be assessed to characterize the athlete´s physical composition using the standards of the International Society for the Advancement of Kinanthropometry (ISAK). Those variables will be used to describe the anthropometric profile (Heath and Carter somatotype, body composition through five-way fractionation method, muscle bone index, muscular adipose index, sum of skinfold thicknesses, and proportionality through Ross \& Wilson Phantom strategy. Correspondences of those variables will also be established among different tests and specialties: sprint, middle-distance, long-distance, endurance, combined events, jumps, and throws. This study aims to provide the opportunity to generate reliable references for high-performance Mexican athletes.

### Arms Interventions Module

#### Arm Group 1

**Description:** All 74 athletes competing in track and field events during the XXIV Central American and Caribbean Athletics Championship will be considered

**Intervention Names:**

- Diagnostic Test: Anthropometric assessment

**Label:** Elite and Olympic Mexican track and field athletes

### Interventions

#### Intervention 1

**Arm Group Labels:**

- Elite and Olympic Mexican track and field athletes

**Description:** A total of 43 anthropometric variables (complete profile) will be assessed following the guidelines of the International Society for the Advancement of Kinanthropometry. All measurements will be taken on the right side of the body. The full anthropometric profile will be undertaken in duplicate to establish retest reliability. If the difference between duplicate measures exceeds 5% for skinfolds or 1% for all other variables, a third measurement will be taken, but only after the full profile has been completed in duplicate. The mean of duplicate or median of triplicate anthropometric measurements will be used for all subsequent analysis. The intra-evaluator technical error of measurement (TEM) was calculated according to the 1996 protocol of Pederson and Gore.

**Name:** Anthropometric assessment
