      <dc:description>Introduction and objectives (1): It is currently important to be able to establish logical plans&#xd;
for physical work and/or nutrition aimed at achieving optimal levels of performance and wellbeing.&#xd;
To achieve this, it is crucial to understand anthropometric data and how they relate to body type&#xd;
and, above all, how they associate with parameters linked to health. The present study, therefore,&#xd;
proposed to examine intersexual morphological differences and to determine the existing relationship&#xd;
between somatotype and BMI in a sample of school sports players from Huacho (Peru). Material and&#xd;
methods (2): A descriptive, comparative, correlational, and transversal study was delivered within a&#xd;
sample of 294 students (165 males and 129 females). Participants were aged between 12–16 years&#xd;
and regularly participated in team sports at competitive school level. All participants took part&#xd;
in the anthropometric examination in order to determine their somatotype and body mass index&#xd;
(BMI). Results (3): Significant differences were found to exist between the sexes in practically all&#xd;
of the anthropometric measures. The data demonstrated a high index of overweight and obesity.&#xd;
Further, the zones of occupation of the somatochart for both populations showed a displacement&#xd;
towards endomorphism, and that the level of typological similarity between populations was 30.54%.&#xd;
Conclusions (4): Results indicate a serious need for training so that adolescent students acquire&#xd;
healthy habits and lifestyles.</dc:description>
