Dermatoglific characterization of cyclists junior category of the municipality of Fusagasugá

Abstract

The technique of dermatoglyphs constitutes a valuable and precise tool for sports selection processes, since it allows to obtain qualitative data of the physical and coordinative genetic components of the human being. Its use in the field of physical education and sport is becoming increasingly relevant, allowing sports coaches and coaches to organize groups of athletes with qualities more specific to base sports. The present study evaluated the dermatoglyphic characteristics of junior category cyclists of the municipality of Fusagasugá, to contribute with the process of training them and generate a contribution to the global construction of the characterization of the cycling route worldwide. The results based on the interpretation of the sum total amount of cut lines (SCTL) and the number of deltas of the hand (D10), show results similar to those presented by other authors at national and international level. Based on the Cummins and Midlo technique, and adapting the methodological process to manual techniques of data systematization, step by step the way to process and analyze each record is described, to ensure that the results obtained by the manual method are reliable and accurate. as the systematized software techniques. The data processing and the grouping of the same ones for its presentation and discussion, show in the averages and standard deviation of the total sum of lines cut SCTL and D10.
