description The purpose of this study is to determine the anthropometric motor and functional profile of schoolchildren of both sexes with ages around 10 and 16 years old and to analyze their relationship with sports training processes in the municipality of Ansermanuevo Valle del Cauca Colombia. The selected sample n= 477 was measured: height, weight, chest perimeter, fat percentage, reaction speed and displacement, power in lower and upper limbs, aerobic resistance, flexibility and biological maturation. The statistical analysis of these variables showed that for the female sex the significant changes are given when passing from 11 to 12 years and for men when passing from 14 to 15 years, which indicates that there is an approximate difference of 2 years in the processes of biological maturation between the female and male sexes. There is a great correlation between biological age and some anthropometric indices in both genders (height, weight, normal chest perimeter), and engines in the male gender (speed racing, length jump, throwing and endurance race). This analysis allows us to conclude that the influence of biological age on levels of physical development and motor function in schoolchildren is marked. Physical education teachers and coaches must take into account the pedagogical principles of individualization and differentiation of the physical load, optimizing the physical preparation of the students and athletes from the different disciplines that are practiced in the municipality.

La finalidad del estudio es determinar el perfil antropométrico, motor y funcional de los escolares de ambos sexos, con edades entre 10 y 16 años, y encontrar su relación con los procesos de formación deportiva en el municipio de Ansermanuevo, Valle del Cauca, Colombia. A la muestra seleccionada (n=477) se les midieron: talla, peso, perímetro del tórax, porcentaje de grasa, velocidad de reacción y desplazamiento, potencia en miembros inferiores y superiores, resistencia aeróbica, flexibilidad y maduración biológica. El análisis estadístico de estas variables mostró que para el sexo femenino los cambios significativos se dan al pasar de los 11 a 12 años, y para los hombres al pasar de los 14 a los 15 años, lo cual nos indica que hay una diferencia aproximada de 2 años en los procesos de maduración biológica entre los sexos femenino y masculino. Existe una gran correlación entre la edad biológica y algunos índices antropométricos en ambos géneros (talla, el peso, perímetro normal del tórax), y motores en el género masculino (carreras de velocidad, salto de longitud, lanzamiento y carrera de resistencia). Esto nos permite llegar a concluir que es marcada la influencia de la edad biológica sobre los niveles de desarrollo físico y la función motora en los escolares. Los profesores de Educación Física y entrenadores deben tener en cuenta los principios pedagógicos de la individualización y diferenciación de la carga física, optimizando la preparación física de sus estudiantes y deportistas de las diferentes disciplinas que se trabajan en el municipio.
